Bobby Deol’s ‘What show is that?’ remark on India’s Got Latent sparks debate after Alia -Sharvari’s episode

While Alia Bhatt and Sharvari won over audiences with their fun-filled appearance on India’s Got Latent Season 2, their Alpha co-star Bobby Deol has now found himself at the centre of an unexpected social media discussion after a recent interaction with the media.

The buzz began when Bobby was asked whether he would ever consider appearing on Samay Raina’s popular comedy show, especially after Alia and Sharvari recently featured on it as part of Alpha promotions. However, the actor's response surprised many. Instead of discussing the possibility, Bobby reportedly replied, “What show is that? I didn't even know about it,” before moving on to another question.

Bobby Deol’s Response Goes Viral

A video of the interaction quickly surfaced on social media platform X and several other online forums. The clip spread rapidly, with users debating whether Bobby genuinely had no knowledge of the show or simply chose not to engage with the topic.

India’s Got Latent has become one of the most talked-about comedy shows on the internet, known for its unpredictable format, edgy humour and celebrity appearances. Bobby’s brief reaction therefore caught many viewers off guard and soon sparked a wave of online opinions.

Netizens Divided Over The Actor’s Comment

Social media users were quick to share their thoughts. While some interpreted Bobby’s statement as a subtle dismissal of the show, others felt the reaction was being blown out of proportion.

One user sarcastically pointed out that not knowing about a particular show does not automatically diminish its popularity or relevance. Another user highlighted the irony of criticism directed at India’s Got Latent, noting that Bobby himself has been part of projects aimed at mature audiences, including Animal and Bastards of Bollywood.

Alia And Sharvari’s Episode Was A Big Hit

Interestingly, Bobby’s reaction comes just days after Alia Bhatt and Sharvari appeared on the premiere episode of India’s Got Latent Season 2. The duo embraced the show's signature style of roasting, banter and self-deprecating humour, earning praise from viewers for being sporting and entertaining. Their appearance was part of the promotional campaign for Alpha, the upcoming action thriller from YRF’s Spy Universe.

Featuring Alia Bhatt, Sharvari, Bobby Deol and Anil Kapoor in key roles, Alpha is one of the most anticipated releases of the year. The film is set to hit theatres on July 3 and marks another major chapter in the expanding spy franchise.
