Mukesh Khanna-Samay Raina row: Mukesh Khanna compares's Samay Raina to "dog's tail"
Comedian Samay Raina recently made his comeback with his YouTube special Still Alive, a one-hour video that quickly grabbed attention on social media. During the show, Samay also took a dig at actor Mukesh Khanna, prompting a strong response from Mukesh, who has now hit back at the comedian’s remarks.
The conflict between comedian Samay Raina and actor Mukesh Khanna intensified after Mukesh posted a series of strong and emotional remarks on social media.
Mukesh Khanna did not limit himself to just one statement he went on a prolonged rant expressing his anger and disappointment. Using sharp metaphors, he compared Samay to a “dog’s tail,” suggesting that no matter how much one tries, it cannot be straightened. Through this analogy, he implied that Samay’s behavior and style of comedy cannot improved.
He further described Samay as someone “shaped by negativity,” claiming that his content is influenced by “dirt” and “roasting culture,” rather than meaningful humor. According to Mukesh, such comedy disrespects values and crosses acceptable limits.
The actor also emphasized that Samay had already faced criticism from people across the country but continued making similar remarks, calling this behavior “shameless.”
In one of his most extreme statements, Mukesh suggested that Samay should face public humiliation for allegedly insulting Shaktimaan. He said that such disrespect toward a beloved superhero figure especially one admired by children should not be tolerated.
He even went as far as proposing that Samay be publicly paraded through streets, where people could throw tomatoes and eggs at him. This, according to Mukesh, would serve as a lesson for insulting cultural icons.
Mukesh Khanna’s reaction appeared deeply emotional, as he has long been protective of the legacy of Shaktimaan. For him, the character represents more than just entertainment it carries moral and cultural significance, especially for younger audiences.
This response came shortly after Samay addressed the ongoing controversy during his show. He said that many “irrelevant people” tried to gain attention during the issue and mentioned Mukesh Khanna’s criticism of him and fellow creator Ranveer Allahbadia.
Samay also made a controversial remark about the impact of Shaktimaan in the past. He claimed that some children had tried to imitate the superhero by jumping off buildings, questioning Mukesh Khanna’s moral stance.
