Samay Raina and Ranveer Allahbadia will appear together on The Great Indian Kapil Show on May 2, 2026, at 8 PM on Netflix. This marks their first on-screen reunion since the controversy surrounding India’s Got Latent, stirring significant online buzz.
Fans have expressed both excitement and surprise at the news. Raina himself commented, “Friends, I am finally coming to my favorite show, The Great Indian Kapil Show.

Kapil Sharma described the upcoming episode as natural, fun, and full of laughter. He noted that the reunion is perfectly timed around World Laughter Day, emphasizing the healing power of humor after a tumultuous period.
