“Samay Raina spotted with mystery girl:Seen holding her hand through crowd, helps fan who falls; watch video”
A new video of comedian Samay Raina has gone viral on social media, showing him holding the hand of a mystery woman as he escorted her through a crowd. While the woman's identity has not been confirmed, the clip has once again fuelled speculation about Samay's personal life. The video surfaced amid ongoing rumours linking Samay with 12th Fail actress Medha Shankar. Although neither of them has commented on the speculation, the latest clip has reignited discussions online. The video is reportedly from the sets of India's Got Latent Season 2. As Samay exited after the shoot, he was surrounded by fans and paparazzi. In the middle of the crowd, he was seen holding the hand of a woman wearing a face mask and carefully guiding her to a waiting car before leaving the venue. Dating rumours with Medha Shankar resurface Earlier this year, rumours linking Samay Raina with 12th Fail actress Medha Shankar had also gone viral. Social media posts claimed the two were spotted together at the same venue and allegedly left separately after noticing the paparazzi. However, neither Samay nor Medha has addressed the speculation, and there has been no official confirmation of the dating rumours. Supreme Court imposes ₹3 lakh fine on Samay Raina Separately, the Supreme Court on Tuesday imposed a ₹3 lakh fine on Samay Raina, along with Ranveer Allahbadia, Vipul Goyal, Balraj Paramjit Singh Ghai, Sonali Thakkar and Nishant Jagdish Tanwar, in connection with the India's Got Latent controversy. The bench of Chief Justice Surya Kant, Justice Joymalya Bagchi and Justice V. Mohana observed that Samay had failed to comply with its earlier direction to invite persons with disabilities to his show. The court said he had misled the court and violated its order, directing him to deposit the fine within two weeks. Foundation alleged insensitive remarks The matter arose from a petition filed by the Cure SMA India Foundation, which alleged that India's Got Latent included insensitive remarks about the cost of treatment for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) and mocked persons with disabilities. Appearing for the foundation, advocate Aparajita Singh told the court that Samay had never contacted the organisation or invited any person with disabilities to participate in the show. Arguments presented before the court Defending Samay, his lawyer argued that the show had raised ₹9 lakh for a charitable cause and claimed that persons with disabilities had been invited to participate, with their photographs featured in the programme. He added that if they could not reach members of the petitioning organisation, it was unfortunate but unintentional. Aparajita Singh responded that the foundation was not seeking money and accused the comedian's team of showing arrogance. Samay's counsel rejected the allegation, saying their actions should not be interpreted that way. Controversy began in 2025 The India's Got Latent controversy first erupted in 2025 after guest Ranveer Allahbadia made an objectionable remark on the show. The episode triggered multiple police complaints, legal proceedings and widespread criticism, with several comedians and creators associated with the show coming under scrutiny. In February 2025, Ranveer Allahbadia appeared as a guest judge on Samay Raina's show 'India's Got Latent'. He asked a contestant a highly objectionable question related to their parents' sexual relations. After this clip went viral, widespread protests began across the country. After this, FIRs were registered in several states including Maharashtra and Assam. The complaints included the names of Samay Raina, Ranveer Allahabadia, and other panelists. Subsequently, FIRs were filed in several states including Maharashtra and Assam. The complaints named Samay Raina, Ranveer Allahabadia, and other panelists. It was alleged that obscene and indecent content was shown in the show.
