Samay’s Instagram followers suggested Kusha Kapila as a panellist for his, ‘India’s Got Latent’
Samay Raina recently requested panellist suggestions from his Instagram fans for his next program, India’s Got Latent. Samay’s Instagram fans recommended Kusha to be on the panel. In a comical Instagram story response, Samay said he couldn’t tag her because she had blocked him, but he hoped they could work together in the future.
“Hahahaha to be honest, that would be an epic episode for sure. Can’t tag her because I’m blocked but hopefully someday in the future”.
The internet was enraged over Raina’s shaming of Kusha Kapila:
Kusha Kapila, a well-known figure on the internet, was ridiculed by Samay Raina and numerous comedians during Season 1 of the Pretty Good Roast Show. But Samay’s intrusion into her private life sparked a lot of online debate.
Samay Raina joked about Kusha’s divorce with Zorawar Ahluwalia earlier this year on the show. Many people thought the roast was inappropriate and “dehumanising,” which led to a reaction.
