Mukesh Khanna rebukes Samay Raina
Mukesh Khanna shared an edited picture in which Samay was seen sitting on a donkey. The text on the photo read, “Samay Raina tu sirf gadhe par baithne ke layak hai, voh bhi muhh kala karke.”
In the caption, Khanna penned a fiery note that read, “Kutte ki dum tedhi rehti hai. Use lakh sheeshiyon mein rakho. Bahar nikaalo. Phir tedhi ki tedhi!! Samay Raina ki bhi ek dum hai. Kitna bhi maaro, seedha karo, woh wapas tedhi ho jaati hai. Kyonki woh seedha-saadha praani nahin hai. Woh roasted praani hai. Gandagi ki aag mein jalaya hua, pakaya hua.”
He further added, “Poore desh ne lataada, maara. Phir aa gaya besharmon ki tarah, aur maar khaane. Ab ek hi cheez baaki hai. Uska munh kaala kar gadhe par bitha kar desh bhar ke shehron mein, galiyon mein uski parade karni chahiye. Jahan bachche usko ande, tamatar maarein. Kyonki usne unke superhero Shaktimaan ka apmaan kiya hai!!!”
Samay Raina’s comment on Mukesh Khanna
Khanna’s attack comes a day after Raina took a jab at Sunil Pal, Khanna, and B Praak, claiming that all “irrelevant people” tried to gain limelight during the controversy. He mocked Mukesh, saying, “Shaktimaan also joined in. How will we fight Shaktimaan? Sorry, Shaktimaan! Shaktimaan has killed children ‘fak-fak-fak karke’. How are you taking the moral high ground?” he added.

The video went viral on social media, dominating the headlines, with members on the show facing police complaints across the country.
Breaking silence on the controversy, the stand-up comedian revealed he was in a state of “psychosis” after three FIRs were filed against him. He revealed that while he generally suffers from anxiety attacks, it got to a point where he began shivering before the show.
