What was the joke on ‘India’s Got Latent’?

Isme main ek Pakistani spy hoon jo India mein aata hai, uski yaddasht chali jaati hai aur woh sochta hai ki woh Indian hai. Usko desh bhakti toh yaad hai, lekin desh kaunsa hai bhul jaata hai (I play a Pakistani spy who comes to India and then has a memory loss. He thinks he is an Indian. He is patriotic but forgets which country he belongs to).”Kullu instantly said, “Woh Adnan Sami hai (That is Adnan Sami).” The line left everyone in splits.
