A sneak peek at Sarkaa₹, aha's upcoming game show hosted by Pradeep Machiraju

Telugu streaming platform aha is leaving no stone unturned to widen the scope of its content and is coming up with a vast variety of shows in the non-fiction segment in the next few weeks. The first among their lineup is Sarkaa₹ (aka Sarkaar), a unique game show that marks the OTT debut of television host and actor Pradeep Machiraju. Fun88, one of India's most popular sports betting sites, is the gaming partner for the show that's set to take off on October 29. A glimpse of the same was released by aha recently.

The voice-over of the glimpse says, "You may have seen actors who bring a smile to your faces, people who charm you with their beauty, artistes who get you grooving with their music. Here comes a man who can take them all for a ride. He can tease you with his intelligence and mess with your clarity. He plays with your desires and greed. It's not easy to win him over." This ends with a punchline of sorts, 'Sarkaa₹ ni gelvalante dabbu okate unte saripodhu, Dhimak kuda undali!' (Money can't alone win over him, you need brains).

Pradeep Machiraju donning black shades a blue-coloured blazer is as stylish as ever in the sneak peek. The game-show format hasn't been explored yet in the Telugu digital space and Sarkaa₹ promises to be an interesting ride for the viewers and the show participants. Agasthya Arts is producing the show, with the likes of Nitin Kanaparthi and LYSN Bharath involved in its execution. We can't wait to see how the format of the show pans out and the celebrities who'll add sheen to it. aha's talk show with Nandamuri Balakrishna, Unstoppable with NBK, is also set to commence during the Diwali weekend.
