The latest episode of ‘India’s Got Latent’ is now live, with Varun Dhawan and Medha Shankr joining host Samay Raina on the judging panel. While Medha largely stayed away from the line of fire, Varun became the episode’s main target as Samay poked fun at everything from nepotism to his filmography. The actor took the jokes in good humour, later remarking, “It is important to laugh at yourself.”Samay Raina brings up the Ranveer Allahbadia controversyThe conversation soon turned to the controversy that had erupted around ‘India’s Got Latent’ last year. When Varun asked Samay whether the incident had changed him, the comedian joked that having guests such as Alia Bhatt and Varun on the show was the biggest development since then, adding, “The show just keeps going downhill.”Varun revealed that he had been following ‘Latent’ since its first season and regularly watched the episodes. When he mentioned that he had even shown some episodes to his father, Samay recreated the infamous question associated with Ranveer Allahbadia’s controversial appearance on the show.Samay asked Varun, “Would you rather watch Latent alone or join and watch it with your parents?” Without missing a beat, Varun replied, “I would just watch it alone. That’s it.”Samay then asked whether Varun had expected something to go wrong with the show. The actor began, “Something would go off,” prompting Samay to complete the thought: “And it has. You are here.” Varun burst out laughing and admitted, “It really did go off.”Varun Dhawan jokes about getting ‘bail’Samay continued to tease Varun about the controversy as the actor settled into his seat. When asked how he was feeling, Varun quipped, “I feel like I could get bail if something happens.”Samay immediately responded, “Again, only because of your dad,” referring to Varun’s filmmaker father David Dhawan. The actor laughed and agreed, saying, “Yeah, only because of my dad.”Despite the constant ribbing, Varun remained an enthusiastic participant throughout the episode, matching Samay’s humour and laughing along with the jokes. His willingness to poke fun at himself made the appearance one of the episode’s highlights.More about Varun DhawanOn the work front, Varun Dhawan is set to return as Bhediya in ‘Bhediya 2’. If reports are to be believed, the actor could also headline YRF’s first horror film.
