A clip from India's Got Latent Season 2 has gone viral after Samay Raina sought Alia Bhatt's permission before joking about her father, Mahesh Bhatt. While many praised the comedian's respectful approach, others felt the show had become too cautious. One user wrote, "IGL S2 has gone soft. I said what I said."

Stand-up comedian Samay Raina's popular show India's Got Latent returned with its second season, a year after it was embroiled in controversy over YouTuber and podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia, aka BeerBiceps, making an inappropriate 'parents' sex remark'.

The first episode of the new season featured Alia Bhatt and Sharvari as guests ahead of the release of their film Alpha. While the episode premiered on June 20, several clips from it have already taken social media by storm, with one particular moment especially grabbing fans' attention.
