Rakhi Sawant, who's always in the spotlight for her quirky antics, caused quite a scene on comedian Samay Raina's YouTube reality show, India's Got Latent. While serving as a judge, she reportedly got into a heated argument with co-judge Maheep Singh, known for his popular "Mummy Kaisi Hain?" joke, and ended up throwing a chair on stage. The incident, which happened in Delhi, quickly went viral and has been making waves online. Rakhi Sawant hurls a chair after tiff with Maheep Singh If you're curious about what went down, people on Reddit who were at the show shared the details. As expected, Rakhi was stirring up drama like she often does, but this time it didn't sit well with everyone, especially Maheep Singh, who was also a judge on the episode. Apparently, she kept interrupting him throughout the show, making crude jokes at his expense, which annoyed him so much that he stopped giving feedback on the contestants. The final straw came when Maheep praised the last contestant, a poet, and Rakhi shouted, "Chup kar buddhe, kitna pakayega tu!" This comment upset Maheep so much that he walked off the show. The other judges also followed suit after Samay said, "Kya yaar, chalo ab chhodo," signaling it was time to move on. Context: I attended the 3.30 episode and the show started 45 mins late. When the curtains were taken off, Rakhi Sawant entered the show saying 'Maheep ji mere undergarments chura ke bhag gaye thay' to which Maheep replied 'Toh wapas bhi toh de diye thay'. (1/2) https://t.co/RQRVrEgti8 — Pranay Singh (@thepranaysingh) October 7, 2024 So, what exactly is this show? It's a reality show, somewhat like a parody of India's Got Talent, hosted and judged by Samay Raina. The judging panel changes with every episode, and they evaluate the "entertaining hidden talents" of the contestants while testing their self-awareness using a quirky scoring system. So far, celebrities like Badshah, Siddhant Chaturvedi, Gursimran Khamba, Raftaar, Nishant Tanwar, Uorfi Javed, Vipul Goyal, Kunal Kamra, Atul Khatri, Aashish Solanki, Raghu Ram, Tanmay Bhat, and Amit Tandon have appeared as judges. The show is meant to be funny, sarcastic, and entertaining. Rakhi Sawant opens up about her ex-relationship Previously, Rakhi Sawant was in the news for her tumultuous relationship. She alleged that her husband Adil Khan Durranis's family told her that she is a Hindu and hence they can't accept her into the family. Speaking to reporters outside a court in Mysuru, Rakhi Sawant broke down and said, "He (Adil) is married to me. I want justice. Today morning I spoke to his father. He told me that they can't accept me because I am a Hindu. After I told him that I have now accepted Islam and that his son is married to me, he stopped taking my calls. Adil is always threatening me with 'talaq'." She added, "I don't want to give him divorce. I am his wife. His father spoke very rudely to me. I don't know anyone in Mysuru, but I want justice. I have accepted Islam. I have all the documents of my marriage. Where should I go now? What should I do?" "I met Adil in Mysuru one year ago, and eight months back we got married. I accepted Islam and we did 'Nikah'. Our marriage was registered in Mumbai. He had promised me that we will have babies and do a lot of things together," Sawant said. (With inputs from IANS)

But mom, you and dad have always given me strength and to believe in dreaming big and to have an attitude to never give up and most importantly, the unconditional love, thank you ma thank you so much, maa, the power of dreaming big you gave me.” When I was a little boy today, that little boy has achieved all his dreams, and no dream is big enough that can’t be achieved by that little boy of yours today. I remember dad saying, there is no right or wrong in this world. It’s just in or out. That’s so true I know today when I ask you what you want as your birthday present, the only thing you would ask is me standing vindicated from all these fake allegations and make you feel proud mom. I am promising you this, no matter what I will stand vindicated from all these baseless sham cases and will make you proud as the best son in this world. Mark my words, this will happen very soon. “ “However, mom, I am giving you a very special birthday gift today, like how dad says your son is an extraordinary mom today. I am giving you a mansion on wings when I was 12 years old. I had promised. I would give you this and today I have made it a reality. Mom it’s a jumbo jet and proudly to say better than any other private jumbo plane in this country anyone owns privately I don’t wanna break the interior surprise.” “However, it’s nothing more than the interior of a super luxury designer villa. Now mom, you can fly feeling home to all your regular temple visits and fly non-stop to vacation, unlike how you had to stop over for refuelling on a small falcon. Mom, your gift is waiting for you for its first flight to Tirupati and then to Shirdi today.” He concluded his letter by saying, “I love you, mom irrespective of the situation I am in mom, your little boy who has set an example today for all these young boys out there to never stop dreaming big, there is no right or wrong. It’s only in or out, your destiny is in your hands. No dream is big enough. Mom once again happy happy birthday. Love you. Loads and loads. Enjoy your gift.
