Who expected a jump rope performance to become one of the biggest highlights of India’s Got Latent Episode 3? Well, Vishal Pathak did exactly that. The Shahdara-based influencer walked onto Samay Raina’s show with confidence, delivered a jaw-dropping performance, scored a perfect 10/10 from the entire panel and even ended up roasting the judges. But who is Vishal Pathak, the contestant who impressed everyone with his talent and quick wit? Let’s find out.
Who Is Vishal Pathak?
Vishal Pathak is a Delhi-based influencer, performer and professional jump rope athlete from Shahdara. While many contestants come to India’s Got Latent hoping to grab attention, Vishal already had an impressive journey before stepping onto the stage.
His Instagram, which has over 69,000 followers, is filled with jump rope fusion videos where he combines freestyle tricks, dance moves and fitness. But this is not just a social media hobby for Vishal. He is a South Asian Jump Rope Champion and has won more than 10 national gold medals in the sport.
Vishal Pathak’s ‘Money Maker’ Jump Rope Trick
From the moment Vishal entered the stage, it was clear that he was confident. His high-energy jump rope routine immediately caught everyone’s attention, but the biggest moment came when he performed his signature “Money Maker” trick.
When Samay Raina asked him about the move, the comedian hilariously assumed it was related to earning money, leading to a fun exchange between the two. Vishal then clarified that it was actually the name of a jump rope trick.
The first attempt did not go as planned, but instead of giving up, Vishal confidently asked for another chance. And the second attempt? Absolutely flawless. The audience erupted, the judges stood up in excitement and Vishal Dadlani was so impressed that he lifted him in celebration. By the end of his performance, every panellist awarded him a perfect 10/10.

He also joked around with Raghu Ram and Vishal Dadlani, showing that he was not intimidated by the star-studded panel.
