A Look at Samay Raina’s Car Collection
This isn’t Samay’s first luxury car. Back in 2020, he proudly announced the purchase of his first car, a Honda City, sharing, "Bought my first car yesterday from the money I made from brand deals recently. Now I will learn how to drive. Only problem is that I grew up playing GTA."
As per gomechanic.in, Samay’s car collection has expanded since then and reportedly includes a Mini Cooper, Ford Mustang, Kia Carnival, and a Porsche Boxster.
Recent Controversy Around Samay Raina
Earlier this year, Samay Raina was in the headlines after facing backlash for his YouTube show India's Got Latent. He, along with fellow creators Apoorva Mukhija, Ashish Chanchlani, and Ranveer Allahbadia, were named in an FIR for allegedly promoting obscene content.
In August, the Supreme Court directed Samay and comedians Vipul Goyal, Balraj Paramjeet Singh Ghai, Nishant Jagdsish Tanwar, and Sonali Thakkar (Sonali Aditya Desai) to issue an unconditional apology on their platforms for making remarks deemed insensitive towards persons with disabilities.
