Samay Raina, who was cheering up for Alia Bhatt starrer Alpha and even arranged free tickets for a group of fans to watch the film, has now generated fresh chatter with his scintillating jab targeting the film’s box office struggle weeks after the release of the much-awaited Yash Raj’s spy thriller.
A video from the bonus episode of India’s Got Latent Season 2 is going viral on the internet where Samay joked about the film’s poor performance while roasting Raghav Juyal, who was one of the guests present at the show.
Samay surprised fans with a members-only episode of Season 2 on Monday featuring Raghav Juyal, Munawar Faruqui, Niharika NM, and Rohan Joshi. And one of the clips from the show is going viral, showcasing the banter between Raghav and Samay.
Samay asked Raghav to finally tell about his film while promoting his upcoming film Bhai Tera Star Hai. Raghav said, Meri film aa rahi hai Bhai Tera Star Hai (My film is releasing Bhai Tera Star Hai).” Reacting to this, Samay said, “Kitni baar khud hi batana padega toh kaisa star hai? (What kind of star are you that you have to tell it again and again?)”, roasting Raghav, which prompted the audience to laugh.
Raghav gave it back to Samay, saying, “Alia Bhatt ne bhi khud hi bataya tha (Even Alia Bhatt herself told).” In response, Samay took a playful jab at Alia, joking about the box-office struggle of her recently released film Alpha: “Uski bhi nahi chali thi (Even her film did not work),” leaving the audience in splits.
However, Samay didn’t mention Alpha, but since Alia attended India’s Got Latent Season 2 to promote her spy thriller, the connection is obvious.
Raghav Juyal’s Bhai Tera Star Hai, directed by Vivek B. Agrawal, is scheduled to hit theatres worldwide this Thursday, July 30, 2026.
