New Delhi: Comedian Samay Raina has once again managed to grab headlines—this time not for his jokes, but for his wardrobe choice. The stand-up comic surprised everyone at the star-studded premiere of Aryan Khan’s much-anticipated directorial debut, The Ba***ds Of Bollywood held in Mumbai on Wednesday evening.
While Bollywood’s biggest names walked the red carpet in high-fashion ensembles, Samay kept it simple yet attention-grabbing. He arrived in a plain black T-shirt emblazoned with the bold text: “Say No to Cruise.”
The quirky fashion statement immediately caught the eye of paparazzi and fans alike. Pictures of the comedian from the event quickly circulated online, sparking a flurry of reactions. Many netizens praised his unconventional style, while others speculated about the hidden meaning behind the message.

Many suggested it was a jab at Aryan Khan’s 2021 arrest in a drug-related case. For the unversed, Aryan Khan was embroiled in a high-profile drugs case after the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) raided a rave party on the Goa-bound Empress cruise ship off the Mumbai coast. The superstar’s son was arrested along with his friend Arbaaz Merchant by an NCB team led by ex-Zonal officer Sameer Wankhede in October 2021. Aryan Khan was got out in Bail after spending more than three weeks in jail following his arrest.
