Comedian Samay Raina has returned with the second season of his controversial show India’s Got Latent. The opening episode, released on June 20, features Alpha stars Alia Bhatt and Sharvari Wagh as special guests, and generated significant online buzz. Now, ahead of the second episode, Samay has shared an emotional note to express how excited he is to share the stage with his ‘comedy heroes’.

Taking to his Instagram Stories, Samay revealed that comedians Chandan Prabhakar, Kiku Sharda and writer-comedian Haarsh Limbachiyaa will join him for the next episode. He wrote, "I grew up watching @chandanprabhakar @kikusharda and sooo many shows written by @haarshlimbachiyaa30. All of them made me laugh so much and shaped my comedy in a big way. Tonight I'm going to do Latent with them, I can't believe it!!!! I'm so excited for you guys to see me jamming with my comedy heroesss. These guys are veterans, I cant waitttt!!"

India’s Got Latent Season 2 will be a weekly event. Samay has also made it clear that the show will continue in its uncensored form. As he described it, the series remains “no filter”, with edgy humour and strong language intact, without any dilution for either platform. After many complained that the show felt manufactured after the first episode, Ashish Chanchlani took to Instagram Stories and defended it. He wrote, "For people saying latent is too filtered or has lost its charm and s**t.. Just remember we had to fight a year long legal battle where we promised to stay in line and make sure history doesn't repeat itself."
