Aamir Khan vs Samay Raina: Comedian takes witty jab at 'Laal Singh Chaddha' failure in viral video. Watch
Samay Raina's Career Amid Controversy
Bollywood actor Aamir Khan and comedian Samay Raina recently engaged in a friendly game of chess that quickly grabbed attention on social media. The match, shared by Samay on his Instagram, wasn't just about strategy—it turned into a humorous exchange that left fans entertained. As Aamir smoothly defeated the YouTuber, Samay took a playful jab at the actor's much-discussed film, Laal Singh Chaddha, adding a touch of satire to the already amusing moment.The video opens with Aamir Khan confidently settling into the match, requesting the crew to start recording. He cheekily announced his intent to win and warned that they would play for a full half-hour. As the match unfolded, Aamir pointed out Samay's errors with light-hearted comments, even telling him, 'You messed up, my friend.' Despite Samay's efforts to hold his ground, Aamir maintained his lead and brushed off distractions with focused responses.Toward the end of the game, as victory became imminent, Aamir reminded Samay that losing to him should be a matter of pride. Samay, unfazed, delivered a sharp one-liner in return, saying sometimes Laal Singh Chaddha moments happen—clearly referring to the film's commercial failure in a humorous context. The remark drew laughter from Aamir, showing the sporting spirit between the two.This interaction comes at a time when Samay Raina is gradually returning to public content creation. Earlier this year, his YouTube reality show India's Got Latent came under fire due to an episode featuring offensive content. One particular moment involving podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia sparked backlash, resulting in FIRs and the eventual removal of all episodes from the internet. The controversy also led to the cancellation of Samay's live shows in India.Currently, Samay is focusing on his international comedy tour, performing in the UK, Europe, and other parts of the world. Known not just for his humor but also his influence in popularizing chess content online, Samay has been instrumental in merging entertainment with the sport. His earlier ventures, including the Chess Super League, have featured grandmasters and attracted significant audiences on YouTube.For Aamir Khan, the chess face-off was a refreshing change amid the promotions of his latest film Sitaare Zameen Par, which released on June 20. The movie, featuring Aamir and Genelia Deshmukh, has been performing well at the box office and has crossed Rs 130 crore. Directed by R.S. Prasanna, the film marks a return to form for Aamir after the lukewarm reception of Laal Singh Chaddha.

'Actors want diet food in the morning, drugs at night,' says former CBFC Chief, producer Pahlaj Nihalini as he slams high entourage costs

He said in an interview with, Learning From The Legend podcast, 'Where one person was working now, 10 people are employed. Earlier, there used to be one vanity van, but now actors demand six vanity vans — one for exercising, one for kitchen, one for meetings. Sharam ani chahiye un actors ko ko che vanity vans mangate hai (Actors should feel ashamed for asking for six vanity vans). Earlier only makeup man used to go with actors, now they demand a separate hairdresser and a person just to hold their mirror. They give Rs 1.5 lakh bills for nothing. Assi Assi hazaar ka make-up chahiye. Earlier they used to bring home cooked food, but now they want diet food. They want drugs at night and diet food in the morning.' When further probed and asked if the drug culture still exists in the industry. 'Of course it exists. Kuch actors ke toh aankhon mein hi aapko dikhega drug hi drug hai.'

'Akshay Kumar forced to cast Kareena Kapoor in Talaash,' says Pahlaj Nihalini; revealing it was the first time in his career that an actor interfered in casting
Former CBFC ( Central Board Of Film Certification ) Chief and film-maker Pahlaj Nihalini is always known for being quite vocal about his opinions. Nihalini in the recent interview has spoken harshly about the growing costs of entourage of actors. He revealed the kind of demands which actors have. He also added that earlier heroes never interfered with the casting of heroines but it started with Akshay Kumar who referred Kareena Kapoor for his film 'Talaash'. Pahlaj said that this was the first time in his career that he saw such a demand. 'Earlier, producers and directors used to cast and heroes wouldn't interfere in casting. The first actor to interfere in casting with me was Akshay Kumar in Talash in 2002. He told me that 'we can start the movie tomorrow, and you can give me any amount that you want, but the heroine of this film will be Kareena Kapoor.' It was one of the most costly film of that time, it was made in Rs 22 crore. This was the first time in my career that an actor had demanded a certain cast,' he said. He said that now a days, the actor only decides everything about the film - right from the director to actresses or technicians. 'Aajkal toh yeh pura racket hai. Aaj kal sab kuch actor ka hi hai.' When asked about the reason why Akshay wanted Kareena for the film, he said, 'Sometimes, as the actors grow old they want to star against younger actresses so that their own age looks less.' In this interview, he also spoke about Govinda and was asked if he was arrogant. Reacting to it, he said, "Govinda was always insecure in everything. His father was a huge hero of Mehboob Khan. He was a producer also, had so many losses. Usne itna dard saaha uske baad, bahut saari cheezein unke haath se nikal gayi, aur struggle karna pada. All those things were built inside him while doing something.'
