The segment and Sunil and Samay’s interaction have been grabbing attention on social media, especially in light of their earlier tense exchange linked to India’s Got Talent controversy.Social media users were taken by surprise after Samay and Sunil appeared together on the comedy show, given their complicated past and previous public spats. Many couldn’t believe the unlikely reunion, with reactions ranging from shock to amusement flooding timelines. Many joked that the makers should have gone all out and invited Mukesh Khanna, known for starring in Shaktimaan, to make the episode even more entertaining. For context, Mukesh had also publicly called out Samay during the India’s Got Latent row.“Bs mukesh khanna ko b bula lete to maja aa jata (They should have called Mukesh Khanna too, it would have been fun),” one comment read, with one mentioning, “Shaktimaan ko bhi bulana tha (They should have called Shaktimaan too)/”“Can you see samay's reaction,” one social media user wrote, with another mentioning, “Makers knew what they are doing”. One wrote, “I want a meetup of samay- mukesh khanna , deepak kalal - puneet superstar, carryminati - karan Johar.”“Shaktiman reh gya bas (Only Shaktimaan was left behind),” one joked, with one quipping, “Bigg boss by Netflix.”Other comments read: ‘We want shaktiman as well”, “Krazyyyyyyy”, “Omgmgmgmgiggkgkgkfkgkggmg yikessss”, “Now netflix not gonna chill more”, “Internet is getting wild nowdays” and “Oh goshh”. “Crazyyyyyy ho gya (It was crazy),” one social media user wrote.Samay Raina and Sunil Pal’s complicated pastSamay Raina and Sunil Pal have a strained history, with Sunil previously taking public jabs at Samay during India’s Got Latent controversy. At that time, he also called out Ranveer Allahbadia for his problematic jokes.In February 2025, Sunil Pal had given a scathing review of Samay's comedy. “I think that the time has come to take strict action against these so-called comedians who are actually not comedians but rather a blot on our societies. They are terrorists who use foul language and obscene content. They claim to be content creators, but they have no content and are not creators. I believe they should be punished with at least 10 years in prison for spreading such filth,” said Sunil, as quoted by Times Now. He was commenting on the controversy surrounding Samay's India's Got Latent show, where Ranveer Allahbadia made controversial jokes about parents and sex. He had even called out the makers of megastar Amitabh Bachchan’s Kaun Banega Crorepati for inviting them on the show.On the other hand, Samay called Sunil Pal a "frustrated man" during The Longest Interview podcast. When host Vaibhav Munjal showed Sunil Pal's photo to Samay Raina, the comedian shared, “I don't think about him (Sunil Pal). One thing I learned very early on in my life is that if somebody is saying sh** about others, they are going through something. I don't feel offended... It's better if he is talking about me. No matter if he's talking good or bad about me, after all, he is talking about me. I feel bad for him.""Something is bothering him, some insecurity. That man doesn't have mental peace. I hope he gets peace. Someone who is at peace doesn't enjoy disrupting anyone else's peace of mind. There is some frustration. I don't know him as a person, I have nothing against him. Sunil Pal was iconic, although Raju Shrivastav was better," he added. Previously, the two came together for an advertisement to promote a clothing brand.
