Amazon MX Player yesterday unveiled the trailer of its upcoming entrepreneurial reality series, ‘Bharat Ke Super Founders’ that starts streaming from January 16. The show offers an exciting glimpse into a high-stakes pitch room where ambition is tested, ideas are scrutinised, and real investment decisions are made, a media statement from the streamer said.

The show is hosted and mentored by Suniel Shetty and brings together an illustrious panel of business leaders to back India’s next wave of entrepreneurs.

Produced by Rusk Media and Recur Club, ‘Bharat Ke Super Founders’ sets a powerful stage for ideas emerging from Bharat, putting the limelight on founders from small towns and diverse age groups who are building businesses rooted in real needs and lived experiences.

As the trailer unfolds, viewers are pulled into an intense pitch room where founders from across the country present ideas rooted in real problems and lived experiences. Threaded through it all is the weight of what’s at stake — a Rs. 100 crore real investment pool, with every deal on the show backed by actual capital and serious due diligence, the statement added.

Speaking about the trailer, Amogh Dusad, Director and Head of Content, Amazon MX Player, said, “With ‘Bharat Ke Super Founders’, we are introducing a format that places authenticity at the heart of entrepreneurial storytelling. By combining real founders, real capital, and a stringent evaluation process, the show creates genuine opportunity across Bharat. Through the series, the show aims at giving ideas and innovations stemming from India, a platform to flourish and take their businesses to the next level of growth.”

Fuelled by some of India’s most respected business minds, the platform brings together tycoons such as Dr A. VeluMani (Creator, Thyrocare and Director AVMSmile), Nitish Mittersain (Sounder & CEO, Nazara Technologies), Dr Aarti Gupta (Chief Investment Officer, Anikarth Ventures), Shanti Mohan (Founder & CEO, LetsVenture Trica), Aditya Singh (Co-Founder, All In Capital) and Ankur Mittal (Partner, Physis Capital and Co-Founder, Inflection Point Ventures).

As the show unfolds, a rotating roster of eminent leaders join the table, enriching the dialogue with diverse viewpoints and real-world experience. Adding a powerful financial dimension, Eklavya Gupta of Recur Club contributes to the Rs. 100 crore commitment, introducing AI-native debt solutions that demonstrate how today’s Indian startups combine equity ambition with scalable capital.

Speaking on his role as host and mentor, Shetty added, “I’ve always believed that success comes from consistency, not shortcuts. That’s what ‘Bharat Ke Super Founders’ stands for. It’s about putting in the work, falling down, learning, and getting back up again. To be able to guide founders in a space where real ideas are taken seriously and backed with real capital is something I truly value.”
