Samay Raina teases Huma Qureshi about Yash’s ‘Toxic’ on ‘India’s Got Latent 2’: ‘You’re the first one to flop a movie and then show up here’
Huma Qureshi, who played Elizabeth in Yash’s ‘Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups’, appeared as a guest on Samay Raina’s ‘India’s Got Latent’. Samay joked about the film’s weak run in theatres, and Huma gave him a sharp reply.
Samay Raina’s dig at ‘Toxic’
During the episode, Samay Raina brought up the film’s poor performance. He said, “Usually people come on India’s Got Latent, and then their movie flops. You’re the first one to flop a movie and then show up here.”
Huma Qureshi’s reply
Huma Qureshi did not let the joke pass. She replied, “Dude, I just acted in a movie named Toxic, you’re literally toxic in life.” Samay Raina laughed it off and said that at least people watch him.Huma Qureshi then pointed out that hate-watching gets high viewership these days, so it is no surprise that the show is at the top. Samay agreed and said the same logic would apply to ‘Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups’. He also recalled seeing many intimate scenes in the trailer alone. Huma said that Samay sounds polite when he invites guests but spits out poison once the show begins.
