Who Is Rahil, The Man Behind ‘‘Odi Ji’’?
Rahil is the contestant who impersonated Prime Minister Narendra Modi on India's Got Latent. He introduced his character as “Odi Ji”, using the Prime Minister's recognisable mannerisms and speaking style as the basis for his act.
His performance combined political mimicry with jokes about current affairs and the show's own irreverent format.
Rahil built jokes around PM Modi’s persona, including a reference to the falling rupee.
During the act, he said, “Rupiya gir gaya. But koi baat nahi, bhaiyon, agar rupiya gira hai na, isko uthane wala bhi main hi hoon” (The value of the rupee has fallen. But that's okay, brothers, if the rupee has fallen, I am the one who will lift it up).
The line used the Prime Minister's public image as the foundation for a political joke, setting up the exchange that followed.
The performance took another turn when host Samay Raina brought comedian Kunal Kamra into the segment through a video call.

How Rahil Turned The Tables On Kunal Kamra
Kamra, known for his political comedy, became an unexpected participant in Rahil's act.
During their exchange, Kamra responded, “Ye sab kuch nahi hone wala hai. Bhram mat paalo.” (None of this is going to work. Don't live under an illusion.)
Rahil quickly replied, “Ye kya WhatsApp ka chutkula utha liya tha?” (What was this, have you picked up a WhatsApp joke?)
The remark suggested that Kamra had borrowed his line from a WhatsApp joke or forwarded message. It became the defining moment of the interaction, with Rahil continuing to speak in character.
The exchange did not end there. Kamra addressed Rahil, saying, “My friend, kya karta hai tu? Comedy?” (My friend, what do you do? Comedy?)
When Kamra began speaking to him respectfully, Rahil responded with another quip: “Abhi sir pe kaise aaya?” (How did you suddenly start addressing me as ‘sir’?)
The back-and-forth gave the segment its central hook. Instead of simply performing an impression of a public figure, Rahil used the character to respond directly to another comedian.
