Netflix released an announcement video featuring Raina and his creative collaborator, Balraj Singh Ghai. Towards the end of the video, the comedian also announced that one of his upcoming stand-up comedy specials will arrive on the streaming giant soon.
The two-minute announcement video opens with Ghai asking Raina if the show is genuinely moving to Netflix. When Ghai accuses him of betraying YouTube, a bodyguard standing behind the comedian says, "You have to do it for the money."
Ghai asks Raina, "How much money do you want to earn? Will you forget your fans for money?" As Ghai and Raina argue, Raina confirms the simultaneous release.
When Ghai asks why viewers would choose Netflix to watch the show, Raina says, "There are no ads on Netflix." A man playing a Netflix representative says that the streamer likes acquiring shows that have already performed well, adding, "And there is no comment section either, so people won’t be able to abuse you."
Raina says the abuse will be there in the show as it has no filter.
India's Got Latent 2 release date
The new season of the controversial show will start streaming from June 20 at 7 pm on Netflix and YouTube, with new episodes dropping every two weeks thereafter.
About India's Got Latent controversy
