Alia Bhatt promoting her film on India’s Got Latent Season 2
The show, fronted by comedian Samay Raina, has built its reputation on awkward auditions, savage humour and complete unpredictability. It is basically the internet’s favourite chaotic corner. So seeing one of Bollywood’s biggest stars allegedly stepping into that madness immediately sent social media into meltdown mode.
So… was Alia Bhatt actually at India’s Got Latent show?
According to multiple online discussions and circulating clips, yes, Alia Bhatt did appear on the show’s new season panel. However, the bigger conversation quickly stopped being about the appearance itself and became a full-blown debate about whether Bollywood celebrities are slowly taking over digital spaces that once felt raw and independent.
For years, India’s Got Latent thrived because it felt anti-establishment. No polished interviews. No carefully media-trained energy. Just internet absurdity in its purest form.
That is exactly why some viewers felt uneasy seeing mainstream Bollywood enter the chat.
Internet divided: “Iconic” or “overexposed”?
One side of the internet praised Bhatt for not taking herself too seriously. Fans loved the fact that an A-list actor was willing to sit through awkward comedy, edgy jokes and internet-style roasting without hiding behind traditional celebrity PR walls.
But critics were far less impressed.

Across X and Reddit, users complained about “Alia fatigue”, arguing that the actor is appearing everywhere all the time. Others worried that celebrity involvement could eventually water down the show’s chaotic identity and force creators to play safe.
Still, whether people loved it or hated it, the crossover worked. The internet is talking, memes are circulating, and India’s Got Latent just became even bigger.
