The latest episode of the second season of India’s Got Latent, featuring Karan Aujla, Tanmay Bhat, Rahul Dua and Gurleen Pannuu, aired on August 2. While the audience expected the comedian to tickle their funny bones with his comic timing, this time it was Aujla who truly stole the spotlight, leaving viewers calling it the “best” one so far.

The Punjabi singer-songwriter had everyone in splits during an unexpected power outage on the set. After Samay said, “Doston, light chali gayi show ke beech mein,” Aujla then gave the most talked-about moment of the episode. He said, “Ye BeerBiceps ki haay lagi hai.” (Image: Instagram/@indiasgotlatent)
BeerBiceps, aka Ranveer Allahbadia, featured in another moment when contestant Deep Gopal was asked who he would kill; he named the YouTuber without hesitation. As the panel laughed, Samay quickly defended Allahbadia, saying, “He’s a sweet guy, man. Come on. Usi wajah se to itne sponsors aaye hain is season mein.” (Image: Instagram/@ranveerallahbadia)
Aujla abruptly stopped himself from asking a contestant about relationships and intimacy. Looking at the chair he was sitting in, he joked, “Ye kursi mein kuch hai,” which people interpreted as a reference to Ranveer Allahbadia, who had previously occupied the same seat and asked a question that led to a massive controversy.

A woman requested the Punjabi singer to sing songs while the crew sorted out the power outage situation during the show. Aujla obliged and asked her to sing with him. Both of them then sang his song, Boyfriend, with the audience cheering and clapping for them. (Image: X/@aniket18x)
In one heartwarming moment, the singer decided to sponsor the Maldives trip of contestant Vijendra Rajak and his wife after they told him that they had eloped as their families opposed their marriage, with his wife’s family having even filed a police complaint against them. Samay called Aujla’s gesture “Sweet.” (Image: Instagram/@vijendra_rajak_igt)
When Samay asked Aujla if he had ever faced a legal case, the singer joked he had never landed in trouble on the scale of his controversy because he had never asked contestants, “Would you rather…?” He then sang a few lines from his controversial track MF Gabru before adding, “I went to Dubai…” which left the panel in stitches.
