MC Stan Slams ‘India’s Got Latent S2’ Contestant Rahul Bhatt Over Cheating Allegation, Samay Raina Gives Him a Crushing Minus 10

A recent episode of Samay Raina's viral YouTube comedy talent show, India's Got Latent Season 2, saw an unexpected and dramatic turn when guest judge MC Stan delivered a scathing critique to a contestant. The rapper, known for his no-nonsense attitude, awarded a 'zero' after a contestant named Rahul Bhatt alluded to cheating on their wife. Not to be outdone, host Samay Raina escalated the judgment, giving the contestant a crushing 'minus 10'. The incident has since ignited conversations across social media, with clips of the judges' reactions circulating widely. Comedians Harsh Gujral and Madhur Virli Summoned by Maharashtra Cyber Cell Over Objectionable Remarks.

MC Stan's Unflinching Stance on Infidelity

During a lighthearted exchange following his performance,  Rahul Bhatt opened up to host Samay Raina about his marriage, admitting it wasn't something he had initially planned; it just happened.

When discussing the differences between being in a relationship and being married, Rahul shared a humorous yet pragmatic perspective on why marriage carries much higher stakes:

"Getting married is a bit difficult. In fact, it's better to recognise that it's difficult because after marriage, you don't really have an option [to leave easily]."

He went on to contrast the dynamics of an affair or casual dating with marriage. In a relationship, couples can break up and reconcile as they please. In a marriage, however, ending the relationship isn't quite as simple it often comes with the risk of losing half your assets.

MC Stan, who has often spoken about personal integrity and his relationships, reacted sharply. While the specific details of the contestant's act remain under wraps, Stan's immediate and unequivocal response resonated with many viewers.

Samay Raina's Amplified Disapproval

Following MC Stan's 'zero', Samay Raina, the show's host and creator, amplified the disapproval by handing down an unprecedented 'minus 10' score. Raina, who celebrates his 29th birthday today, October 26, 2026, was born on October 26, 1997. His show, 'India's Got Latent', launched its first season on June 14, 2024, on YouTube, offering a humorous take on traditional talent formats. The second season premiered in June 2026, with the first episode releasing on June 20, 2026, and is currently streaming on both YouTube and Netflix, further broadening its reach. Raina's 'minus 10' reaction underscores the show's unscripted and often unfiltered nature, where judges and guests are encouraged to express their genuine reactions, no matter how extreme.
