Did Samay Raina Crack A Joke About Rekha In Front Of Amitabh Bachchan? Find Out Here

Samay Raina, Tanmay Bhat, Bhuvan Bam, and Kamiya Jani were the latest special guests on hit quiz show, Kaun Banega Crorepati, season 16. Host Amitabh Bachchan had the best time with the comedians and content creators on the show, as they took turns to win some prize money on the hot seat and regaled him with their unmatched humour. Multiple videos of Samay cracking up Amitabh with his jokes have gone viral on social media over the last week and now, another, more unbelievable one has surfaced. Of course, it is indeed too scandalous to be true.

Did Samay Raina Joke About Rekha?

This video shows Samay asking for Amitabh's Bachchan's permission before launching his next joke. “What is the difference between you and a circle? Neither of you has a Rekha,” Samay is shown to be saying in the video. It ends with laughter from Amitabh Bachchan and Samay looking proud of himself for landing the joke. The video has gone viral and has 14 million views in less than a day.

Fans of the show were shocked to see Samay cracking such a risky joke on the show, considering there used to be rumours of an affair between Amitabh and Rekha in the 80s. “Bro let his intrusive thoughts win,” wrote a person on Instagram. “Bro is now officially banned from KBC,” wrote another. Many asked if the video is even real? It is not. It is generated/tweaked using AI technology.

If you look closely, visuals of Samay's mouth are shown to be glitching when he ‘cracks the joke'. Amitabh's reaction clip is genuine, stitched in from an unrelated part of the actual episode. The voice match, however, too uncanny, which led to all this confusion. Also, this joke was not a part of the episode at all.
