JioSaavn users and fans of the show can choose to be a part of this initiative by donating to the cause, simply by tapping on the banner on the app.

Excited for the fifth season, actor, producer and host, Neha Dhupia said, “This season is different from the previous seasons in terms of the approach. While the format remains the same, this one is a bit special for me since we’re all trying out something new and have all walked in with great enthusiasm. The idea is to keep coming back and giving our fans exactly what they’ve loved us for. We are adapting to the new and have recorded the whole podcast from our homes. So, this season is straight from my home to yours.”
