Who is Surabhi Vanzara? Emraan Hashmi's Murder co-star roasted Samay: A practical reader guide

India’s Got Latent 2 has brought attention to several participants on the show. Influencers such as Geni Kamki, Chello Meme and others have gone viral on social media after their appearances on the show, particularly for their interactions and exchanges with Samay Raina . The latest contestant to attract attention is actor and stand-up comedian Surabhi Vanzara. Videos of her clapping back at Samay and other members of the panel have gone viral, bringing her back into the spotlight.

Surabhi Vanzara is not a new face in the entertainment industry. She has been working in the industry for several years and has appeared across television, films and digital platforms. She began her career with television shows such as C.I.D., Aahat, Ssshhhh…Koi Hai and Hello Inspector, among others, where she appeared in episodic roles. The show, starring Mona Singh, Apurva Agnihotri and Rakshanda Khan, became popular with television audiences and gave Surabhi another prominent role early in her career. Directed by Anurag Basu, the film saw Surabhi play Radhika, a character connected to Emraan Hashmi’s Sunny and involved in the film’s later developments. The film also received attention for its subject, music and performances by Emraan and Mallika. Surabhi later appeared in another Emraan Hashmi film, Tumsa Nahin Dekha, although it did not perform as well at the box office. On television, she has appeared in shows including F.I.R., Hitler Didi and Qubool Hai. Surabhi recently appeared on India’s Got Latent, where she performed a stand-up comedy routine. Once her allotted performance time ended, host Samay Raina appeared unimpressed with her act.

Her major break came with the 2003 television show Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin, in which she played the character of Maria. In 2004, Surabhi made an appearance in the Bollywood film Murder, alongside Emraan Hashmi and Mallika Sherawat. Released in 2004, Murder became a major commercial success and is considered one of the films that helped establish Emraan Hashmi as a prominent actor. She was also part of Hate Story 2.

During her act, she spoke about “working for a rich Gujarati film” as a housewife. Entrepreneur Ashneer Grover, who was also on the panel, said that after watching Surabhi’s performance, he had started finding Rakhi Sawant more interesting.
