Samay faces legal heat by Supreme Court over his disability remark

India’s Got Latent ideator Samay Raina has landed in legal soup yet again as the Supreme Court has expressed distress regarding his insensitive remarks allegedly making fun of an infant suffering from spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a heartbreaking medical condition. Raina recently faced backlash over Ranveer Allahbadia’s joke about parents and sex on India’s Got Latent. Now, Raina has been summoned in another case related to jokes about disability. Sharing concern over Raina’s remark about the disabled, Justice Surya Kant stated, “We are really disturbed by the allegations. We place such instances on record… implead the concerned persons… suggest measures. Then we will see.” SC’reaction comes after an intervention application was submitted by the Cure SMA Foundation of India, urging the court to consider the massive prices of drugs used to treat the condition.
