Karan Aujla surprises runaway couple with Maldives holiday on India's Got Latent; internet praises his kind gesture
A light-hearted episode of India's Got Latent turned unexpectedly emotional when singer Karan Aujla surprised a contestant with an unforgettable gift. Known for its blend of humour, witty exchanges and unconventional performances, the show witnessed a rare moment of generosity that resonated strongly with viewers.
Aujla appeared on the judging panel alongside comedians Samay Raina, Tanmay Bhat, Gurleen Pannu and Rahul Dua. While the panel spent much of the episode entertaining the audience with jokes and playful banter, it was the singer's spontaneous decision to fulfil a contestant's dream that became the biggest talking point.
The contestant, Vijendra Rajak , impressed the judges with an energetic wheel stunt performance. His act earned applause, but it was the personal story he shared afterwards that changed the tone of the conversation.
Vijendra explained that they had dated for only a month before his then-girlfriend insisted they get married. Despite limited financial resources, he agreed, and the two tied the knot. He also shared that the marriage led to a police complaint being lodged by his wife's family, adding another layer of difficulty to their journey together.
The emotional account drew the attention of the judges, who listened closely as the couple reflected on the obstacles they had overcome.
When asked by Samay Raina about his biggest life goal, Vijendra responded that he wished to visit the Maldives with his wife.
Without hesitation, Karan Aujla stepped in and said, "You will be happy to go to Maldives right? So, I will sponsor your tickets."
The announcement was met with cheers from those on the set. Samay described the gesture as "sweet", while Aujla smiled and added, "You are getting this because of your wife."
He wrote, “Thank you so much, India’s Got Latent, for giving me such an amazing platform and unforgettable experience. A huge thank you to Karan Aujla for your appreciation and for this incredible Maldives trip . It truly means a lot to me.”
He also acknowledged the other members of the judging panel, writing, “Thank you so much, Tanmay Bhat, for your love and support. Thank you, Gurleen Pannu. It was a pleasure meeting you. Thank you so much, Rahul Dua, for your encouragement and kindness.”
The heartfelt message quickly gained traction online, with many users celebrating both the contestant's journey and the singer's generosity.
One fan commented, "My Respect for Karan Aujla just went up!" Another described him as having a "Golden heart."
A different user wrote, "Karan Aujla winning hearts beyond music. Moments like these show the human side behind the celebrity image." Another admirer added, "Karan Aujla just won everyone’s heart. What an amazing person. 🥹"
The overwhelming response reflected how viewers connected with the gesture, turning a routine reality show episode into a memorable television moment.
Widely recognised as one of the leading names in Punjabi music, Karan Aujla has built a strong international following through chart-topping songs including Softly, Tauba Tauba, Admirin You, Winning Speech and 52 Bars. While fans know him for his music, this latest appearance has also highlighted a compassionate side that many viewers say has earned him even greater admiration.
