Comedian Samay Raina has once again sparked curiosity about his personal life after a phone call with actor Varun Dhawan during Koffee With Karan Season 9 took an unexpected turn. During the conversation, Samay casually mentioned that he was spending time with his girlfriend, prompting host Karan Johar to tease him about the remark.
The exchange took place during a game featuring Varun and actor Janhvi Kapoor. As part of the challenge, the guests had to call someone and get them to say, “Hi Karan.” Varun chose to dial Samay, but the conversation soon moved away from the task and towards the comedian’s recent headlines.
“Poora news mein aa raha hai, tere saath woh ho gaya,” Varun said, referring to the buzz surrounding Samay. The comedian responded by asking what had happened, before brushing off the attention with, “Kuch na kuch aata rehta hai, bhai.”
The conversation became more intriguing when Samay added, “At present, I am chilling with my girlfriend.”
Karan Johar Seizes the Moment
Karan, who was listening to the call, quickly reminded Samay that he was speaking on Koffee With Karan. The filmmaker-host then playfully encouraged the comedian to reveal more about his relationship, joking that he should come on the show and tell the truth about his girlfriend.
Although Samay did not provide further details during the call, his casual comment was enough to reignite online discussions about his romantic life.
Why Medha Shankr’s Name Is Trending
Samay’s remark has drawn particular interest because of ongoing speculation linking him with actor Medha Shankr. The two have been seen together on multiple occasions, leading fans to question whether their friendship has developed into a relationship.
The speculation gained momentum after Medha appeared on India’s Got Latent Season 2. During the episode, magician Kabir Sharma asked Samay to identify his closest friend among the panel members. Samay chose Medha, a moment that attracted attention from viewers.
Medha appeared on the episode alongside Varun Dhawan and Sharon Verma, adding another talking point to the ongoing discussion surrounding her equation with the comedian.
Switzerland Pictures Add to Dating Speculation
Online speculation intensified after social media users noticed similarities between photographs and locations associated with Samay and Medha during trips to Switzerland. Some interpreted the similarities as a possible indication that the two had travelled together.
However, neither Samay nor Medha publicly confirmed the reports about the alleged holiday or clarified the nature of their relationship.
In September 2026, rumours also circulated suggesting that the pair might be planning a wedding in December. Medha responded by sharing a meme that appeared to dismiss the claims, but she did not announce any wedding plans.
Samay’s Comment Leaves Fans Guessing
Samay’s latest remark has added another layer to the speculation, but it does not establish the identity of the person he was referring to. Neither the comedian nor Medha has publicly confirmed that they are dating.
For now, the conversation on Koffee With Karan 9 has given fans a fresh reason to discuss the comedian’s personal life. Whether Samay’s comment was a genuine confirmation or simply a playful response remains unclear, leaving the rumours surrounding him and Medha unresolved.
