Amazon MX Player has unveiled the official trailer of its upcoming entrepreneurial reality series Bharat Ke Super Founders, offering a compelling glimpse into a high-stakes pitch room where ambition, discipline,
and execution are tested against real investment decisions. Set to stream for free from January 16, 2026, the show brings together India’s next generation of founders and a formidable panel of investors, backed by a record-breaking ₹100 crore capital pool.
Hosted and mentored by Suniel Shetty, Bharat Ke Super Founders positions itself as a platform for entrepreneurs building businesses grounded in real needs, long-term vision, and sustainable execution rather than hype-driven valuations.
A ₹100 Crore Investment Pool and a Platform Rooted in Bharat
Produced by Rusk Media and Recur Club, Bharat Ke Super Founders is being positioned as the largest-ever investment-backed entrepreneurial reality series in India. The trailer puts the spotlight firmly on a ₹100 crore investment commitment, blending equity and structured debt solutions, and underscores the show’s emphasis on founders from across Bharat — including small towns, emerging markets, and diverse socio-economic backgrounds.
The pitch room prioritises verified ideas, strong fundamentals, and clarity of intent. Entrepreneurs are seen presenting their ventures with conviction while facing direct, unfiltered feedback from investors. The series blends high-stakes decision-making with raw emotional moments, as founders openly discuss setbacks, personal risks, and the resilience required to build businesses in India’s complex economic landscape.
A Powerhouse Panel of Investors and Industry Leaders
Fuelled by some of India’s most respected business minds, Bharat Ke Super Founders features an influential panel of investors who bring real-world experience and capital to the table. These include Thyrocare creator Dr A. VeluMani, Nazara Technologies founder and CEO Nitish Mittersain, Anikarth Ventures Chief Investment Officer Dr Aarti Gupta, LetsVenture Trica founder and CEO Shanti Mohan, All In Capital co-founder Aditya Singh, and Physis Capital partner and Inflection Point Ventures co-founder Ankur Mittal.
Adding a significant financial dimension to the show, Eklavya Gupta of Recur Club contributes to the ₹100 crore investment pool, introducing AI-native debt solutions that reflect how modern Indian startups are increasingly combining equity ambition with structured, scalable capital. As the season progresses, a rotating roster of eminent business leaders will also join the table, enriching the dialogue with diverse perspectives and industry insights.
Suniel Shetty on Mentorship, Discipline, and Long-Term Success
Speaking about his role as host and mentor, Suniel Shetty emphasised the values at the heart of the series.
“I’ve always believed that success comes from consistency, not shortcuts,” he said. “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.”
Amazon MX Player on Authentic Entrepreneurial Storytelling
Amogh Dusad, Director and Head of Content at Amazon MX Player, highlighted the intent behind the show’s format and philosophy.
“With Bharat Ke Super Founders, we are introducing a format that places authenticity at the heart of entrepreneurial storytelling,” Dusad said. “By combining real founders, real capital, and a stringent evaluation process, the show creates genuine opportunity across Bharat. The series aims to give ideas and innovations stemming from India a platform to flourish and take their businesses to the next level.”
Investors on Risk, Pressure, and Building Real Value
Investor Dr A. VeluMani described the show as a true reflection of the realities of entrepreneurship.
“There is pressure, there is risk, and there are consequences,” he said. “Every founder you see has earned their place here. This show respects entrepreneurship and the effort it takes to create real value.”
Nazara Technologies founder Nitish Mittersain echoed the sentiment, adding that the show’s strength lies in its focus on outcomes rather than optics.
“True entrepreneurship demands patience, adaptability, and the courage to take calculated risks,” he said. “What excited me about Bharat Ke Super Founders is its commitment to real outcomes. These founders are not just looking to raise capital — they’re ready to build enduring Indian companies.”
