India's Got Latent Season 2 has continued to generate buzz with its celebrity line-up following the show's return.

The opening episode featured Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, who appeared on the show while promoting their upcoming action thriller Alpha. The episode sparked widespread discussion online, with viewers divided over whether the new season retained the chaotic, unscripted energy that made the original a viral success.
