Comedian Samay Raina’s jokes about Archana Puran Singh and her family on India’s Got Latent 2 sparked a debate online, with some viewers accusing the comedian of going too far. However, Archana’s son Aaryamann Sethi has now made it clear that neither he nor his family took the remarks personally. During the episode, Samay took a dig at Archana’s family and referred to her two sons, Aaryamann and Ayushmaan, as “nalle” while joking about their family vlogs.

He also joked that Archana was the only earning member of the family while her husband and sons were seen sitting at home. The comments were made as part of the roast-style humour of the show. While Archana herself played along with the jokes during the episode, clips from the segment later went viral and triggered mixed reactions online.

Addressing the online discussion, Aaryamann explained that he found Samay’s joke funny and did not believe it was intended to hurt him or anyone in his family. He pointed out that when the family shoots their vlogs, they are generally at home, which made Samay’s observation an easy setup for a joke. Aaryamann also said that people have become increasingly sensitive about comedy and that the remark should be viewed in the context of the show.

Aaryamann also made an important point about Samay’s words, essentially saying that being called “nalla” does not make him one. His response showed that he did not want the comedian’s joke to define him. Aaryamann further revealed that he shares a good relationship with Samay Raina.

The two have reportedly spent time together, including playing paddle, and remain in touch. According to Aaryamann, Samay has also visited their home and regularly checks in with them. Archana reportedly added that she and Samay speak frequently, highlighting that there is no personal bitterness between them. Archana Puran Singh has also dismissed the idea that she was offended. She said she understood exactly what she was signing up for when she appeared on India’s Got Latent and was familiar with the show’s style of humour.
