Samay Raina's India's Got Latent 2 In Controversy Again; Complaint Filed Against Mukesh Chhabra, Netflix India: Report

Anurag Shrivastav has filed a complaint against Mukesh Chhabra, a casting director, and Netflix India over an allegedly inappropriate remark made during an episode of India's Got Latent 2. The incident occurred on September 22, 2026, while the complainant watched the show on Netflix from a hotel room in Mumbai. Chhabra is said to have used a sexually suggestive phrase, "Mere Aaram Nagar mein aao, g**** m****."

The complainant has requested a thorough investigation into the matter, questioning the authenticity of the statement, the voice or person who uttered it, the context, and the exact timestamp. The complaint also reveals concerns about Netflix India's content review and approval process, as well as the role of Monika Shergill, Netflix India's content chief.

If verified, the remark could raise issues related to viewer dignity and child cyber security. This is not the first controversy surrounding India's Got Latent, as the show's first season faced backlash in February 2025 due to controversial remarks made by a content creator.
