Comedian Samay Raina has won over the internet for shutting down an audience member's misogynistic remark on his show, India's Got Latent. The incident occurred during a recent episode featuring Alia Bhatt and Sharvari as guests. When Samay asked the audience what a girl likes most in a guy, one audience member replied 'Paisa (money)', which left Alia Bhatt unimpressed. Samay quickly responded with a playful dig, saying 'Gareeb aadmi ne kaha hoga' (Some broke man must have said that). The clip has been praised on Reddit, with many users calling out Pranit More for not intervening in a similar situation.

Pranit More faced backlash earlier this month for not stopping an audience member from making derogatory remarks about a woman during one of his comedy gigs. The incident sparked widespread criticism, with many users accusing both the comedian and the audience member of promoting misogynistic attitudes. The Maharashtra Cyber Police registered cases against Pranit and the audience member on charges related to obscenity and sexual harassment.

Samay Raina's comeback with India's Got Latent Season 2 has been well-received, with the show featuring a new season and a fresh lineup of guests. The show is streaming on both YouTube and Netflix.
