Comedian Samay Raina recently did a unique show called "Still Alive" in which he explained, joked about, and mused on India's Got Latent issue. Samay, known for making people laugh, burst into tears on stage as he recounted how that one incident had brought everyone to their lowest point. He choked up when he remembered a video conference with his mother, falling into tears.
"I was feeling so guilty that morning looking at all this ki something that I have uploaded has caused all this," said Samay.

He remembered Apoorva Makhija nicknamed Rebel Kid being threatened with rape, the Habitat studio being trashed, and individuals approaching Ranveer Allahbadia aka BeerBiceps' mother's clinic. Samay claimed he accepted full responsibility for what occurred to others that day.
He added, "I saw one video that Balraj's wife sent me and that broke me completely. That was the final nail in the coffin."
The video showed Balraj's parents, in their 70s, begging with young cops while sitting at their feet, claiming they had done nothing wrong. Samay choked up when narrating the incident.
Samay recalls emotional video call with his mother
He stated that he was afraid and weeping when he received a video call from his mother. Turning it to audio, he attempted to seem normal, but his mother phoned Balraj right away since she knew her son was not doing well.
"She sees through this bullshit," Samay said and recalled video calling his mother and both breaking down into tears. "She was crying. I was crying. Ham dono ro rahe the call pe."
He brightened the mood with humour, saying, "Baap meme bhej raha hai," demonstrating his ability to merge vulnerability with laughter smoothly.
