Star Plus and JioHotstar are preparing to launch ‘India Ke Top 1%’, an Indian adaptation of the international game-show format ‘The 1% Club’. Hosted by Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor, the series focuses on testing contestants through logic, observation, and common sense rather than factual knowledge. Initial reports indicated a September 5 debut, while subsequent details specified a premiere date of September 19 at 8 PM. Produced by Banijay Asia, the show will feature 100 participants competing through 13 rounds of puzzles and everyday challenges. The competition includes a financial element where participants start with ₹1 lakh, with a collective prize pool potentially reaching ₹1 crore based on mistakes made during the rounds. A promotional teaser featuring Kapoor in a traditional, Qawwali-inspired all-black ensemble has been released, generating significant social media interest. The show’s tagline, ‘Baat Khatki Toh Jeet Pakki’, emphasizes the importance of quick thinking and presence of mind over formal degrees. Siddharth Basu, a prominent figure in Indian quizzing, serves as an official consultant for the project.
