Amazon MX Player, Amazon’s free video streaming service, has unveiled Bharat Ke Super Founders, a high-stakes entrepreneurial reality series.
Hosted and mentored by Suniel Shetty, the show brings together some of the country’s most promising founders to pitch their ideas to a panel of eminent business tycoons, who, along with Recur Club, have collectively allocated ₹100 crore to fund the startup dream of India.
Bharat Ke Super Founders ensures that every pitch presented is backed by verified information, credible data, and real business fundamentals.
Fuelling this mission is a formidable roster of tycoons: Dr A. Velumani (Creator, Thyrocare), Nitish Mittersain (Joint Managing Director & CEO, Nazara Technologies), Dr Aarti Gupta (Managing Partner, Anikarth Ventures), Shanti Mohan (Founder & CEO, LVX), Aditya Singh (Co-Founder, All In Capital), and Ankur Mittal (Co-Founder / Partner at Physis Capital and Inflection Point Ventures).
Joining them through the season is a rotating panel of other eminent business leaders, who bring additional perspectives, sectoral depth, and investment philosophies to the table.
Alongside them, Eklavya Gupta from Recur Club joins the panel as a key contributor to the ₹100 crore commitment, bringing Recur’s AI Native debt infrastructure to the Bharat Ke Super Founders platform.
Bharat Ke Super Founders will stream exclusively on Amazon MX Player, for free, across the MX Player app, Amazon shopping app, Prime Video, Fire TV, and Airtel Xstream.
