India's Got Latent, hosted by Samay Raina, has returned to YouTube four months after a major controversy erupted over a distasteful comment made by YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia, who asked a contestant an inappropriate 'parents' sex' question. The remark triggered severe backlash against Ranveer, Samay, Apoorva Mukhija, and Ashish Chanchlani. Multiple FIRs were filed against all four. Amid the controversy, Samay had to delete all videos related to India's Got Latent from his YouTube channel.
While the original India's Got Latent YouTube channel created by Samay remains inactive, several segments from the show have resurfaced on YouTube and are now available to watch on India's Got Latent Clips. It also includes clips from members-only episodes and currently features 522 videos.

Back in February, during the controversy, Samay issued a statement, writing, "Everything that is happening has been too much for me to handle. I have removed all Indias Got Latent videos from my channel. My only objective was to make people laugh and have a good time. I will fully cooperate with all agencies to ensure their inquiries are concluded fairly. Thank you (sic)."
"Soon after fans noticed the videos were back on YouTube, excitement erupted. One user commented, "2025 is the year of comeback.' Another wrote, "Finalllyyyyyyyy... comeback ho hi gaya Latent ka."
"Best comeback everrr," read another comment, while one user simply said, "I'll take that as a win."
Samay is currently on a tour across Europe, the UK, Australia, and New Zealand, which began on June 5 and is scheduled to conclude in Sydney on July 20.
