Comedy Meets Controversy: Samay Raina Roasts Varun Dhawan, Gets Brutal Reply

Desk Correspondent , Mumbai - Comedian Samay Raina is back in the spotlight with his signature humour, this time taking a cheeky dig at Varun Dhawan’s new song from Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai. The playful roast, delivered in front of the actor himself, has now gone viral on social media.

The moment unfolded in a video shared by Varun Dhawan on Instagram, where the actor was seen promoting his song Wow, sung by Harrdy Sandhu and Kiran Bajwa. As Varun sang along, Samay interrupted him mid-way, jokingly saying, “Aise nahi chalega gaana yaar,” before adding, “Accha gaana banao, apne aap chalega.” Varun, taken aback but amused, responded in the same spirit, but didn’t hold back while posting the clip. Sharing the video, he captioned it with a cheeky jab, calling Samay an “a**hole,” which quickly grabbed attention online. The light-hearted exchange triggered reactions from several celebrities. Karan Johar reacted with laughing emojis, while Gauhar Khan praised Samay’s humour. Janhvi Kapoor also chimed in with a playful comment, adding to the buzz.

The viral moment comes shortly after Samay’s return following the controversy around his show India’s Got Latent. The comedian recently released his stand-up special Still Alive on YouTube, which has received massive response, crossing over 60 million views. Meanwhile, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai marks the reunion of David Dhawan and Varun Dhawan, and also stars Mrunal Thakur and Pooja Hegde. The film is slated for a theatrical release on June 5.

While the exchange between Samay Raina and Varun Dhawan appears to be in good humour, it has sparked a viral moment online, blending comedy with promotion. The incident highlights Samay’s return to form and Varun’s willingness to engage with the banter, keeping fans entertained ahead of the film’s release.
