Mumbai: Samay Raina recently pulled up a stunt that led his fans in speculation about his upcoming project which probably could be India’s Got Latent- Season 2. Following the post netizens flooded his instagram.
The Cryptic Post
The Comedian put up a poll on his instagram story by asking users to decide which platform- Netflix or Amazon Prime ? Fans responded with 82% supporting Netflix while leaving 18% favouring Amazon Prime.
This cryptic post was then accompanied with a post of his bodyguard along with a caption that read “Drop Lemon & Chillies in the comments please, we’re gonna need it.” Usually in Indian traditions, lemon & chillies are used to prevent any bad things from happening while commencing for a good thing or to stay protected from evil eyes for the fresh start. This post led to speculations among fans regarding their upcoming project which he indirectly hinted about his season 2 of India’s got latent during a last event- ‘Still Alive’
Users are speculating that this was a poll for the platform in which he will broadcast his new show. Seeing the overwhelming response he even collaborated with Netflix and gave a cryptic post about his unsaid launch.

After a while, even Samay put up a story by clicking himself along with lemon and chillies (Nimbu Mirchi) along with evil eyes emoji.
