Star Plus is gearing up for one of its biggest reality offerings in years, and if industry buzz is to be believed, the channel is leaving no stone unturned to bring a marquee face on board.
The upcoming show is rumoured to follow a fresh reality format, with new participants taking centre stage in every new episode. Sources suggest that the scale and ambition of the project are being compared to globally popular formats such as KBC and The 50, making it one of the most anticipated reality ventures currently in development.
The show is reportedly being produced by Endemol Shine India, a production house known for backing several successful unscripted formats over the years.
Interestingly, some of Bollywood’s biggest names have allegedly been approached to front the show. Names doing the rounds include Shah Rukh Khan, Ranveer Singh, Aamir Khan and Anil Kapoor. While there is no official confirmation yet, Shah Rukh Khan’s name has generated particular excitement among television fans. If the superstar comes on board, it would mark a return to Star Plus years after he hosted the popular game show Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain?
Adding further fuel to the speculation, sources inform us that the selected host is shooting the first promo
for the show in Mumbai today. However, the identity of the host has been kept under wraps for now.
Will Star Plus manage to pull off a casting coup with Shah Rukh Khan, or will another Bollywood heavyweight step into the spotlight? An official announcement is expected soon, and all eyes are on the channel as it prepares to unveil its next big reality spectacle.
