Which episodes are unreleased?
Instagram user @raptile_sayzz shared a video that compiled pictures from all the unreleased episodes. These included influencer Uorfi Javed and filmmaker Farah Khan with comedian Tanmay Bhat, actor Mallika Sherawat with Bigg Boss winner Munawar Faruqui, cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal and veteran actors Dalip Tahil and Ashish Vidyarthi. An episode with comedian-actor Bhuvan Bam was also in pipeline.
The show fan wrote with his post, “Kam se kam OG episodes toh release hone dete bewafa logon.” A person commented, “Time travel kar sakte kya ?ek scene cut karwana hai bas (Wish we could travel back in time and remove that one scene).” “I know he will not come but I will still wait,” wrote another. “59 ka membership liya tha episode he delete ho gaya,” rued a person.
Many came up with creative ideas to salvage the situation. People suggested Samay should release the episodes on PornHub, OnlyFans or even in Pakistan.
Mallika and Munawar’s episode was shot in January 2024 but never saw the light of day. Yuzvendra also shot for the episode in November last year. Dalip and Ashish shot for it in December.
