Kusha Kapila Blocked Samay Raina Over ‘Dehumanising’ Roast, He’s Still Trying To Get Her On His Show. Leave Her Alone!
The tension between comedian Samay Raina and influencer Kusha Kapila appears far from settled!
The tension between comedian Samay Raina and influencer Kusha Kapila appears far from settled after their public fallout earlier this year. It began with Raina’s participation in a roast on Ashish Solanki’s show, where he delivered jokes targeting Kapila, touching on sensitive topics like her divorce and personal life. The roast’s tone was controversial, with some portions even requiring censorship due to their dehumanizing nature. Both Samay and Kusha were criticised for their involvement, Samay for crossing lines with his jokes and Kusha for not pushing back against the remarks.

Following the incident, Kusha decided to block Samay on Instagram, severing social media ties. However, the matter resurfaced when Samay recently asked his audience for recommendations for panellists on his new show, India’s Got Latent. When one fan suggested Kusha, Raina humorously responded, expressing interest but acknowledging he couldn’t reach out to her due to being blocked. He added that he hoped to bring her on the show someday, showing a hint of optimism despite the strained relationship.
In response to the backlash, Kusha addressed her followers, particularly her female and LGBTQ+ audience, who were disappointed with her decision to participate. She shared that she wasn’t informed of the jokes beforehand, a common practice in Western roasts. Reflecting on the experience, she admitted it was a learning moment and expressed regret that some of the jokes crossed personal boundaries, calling them “shockingly unkind.” She clarified that she had intended to support a friend by attending the roast, viewing it initially as an act of resilience, but the incident ultimately had a negative impact on her.
