“A show cannot be just a television show today, that’s the wrong way of looking at it”: Studio NEXT’s Indranil Chakraborty

The head of Sony Pictures Networks India’s independent content division speaks on his upcoming shows.

After receiving a phenomenal response for its show ‘Scam 1992’ (the recent evidence of its success being the large number of wins at the Filmfare OTT Awards 2021), Sony Pictures Networks India’s independent content division Studio NEXT is gearing up for the release of its next series on Sony Liv ‘The Whistleblower’. At the same time, it will also be launching the Indian adaptation of the popular international business show ‘Shark Tank’ on television. Another show produced by it, Dhadkan, started airing on television last week. The show presents its protagonist’s journey as a working woman and her challenges.

The two shows will be replacing Kaun Banega Crorepati, another show produced by Studio NEXT, in the weekday primetime slots. Afaqs! caught up with Indranil Chakraborty, head, Studio NEXT, to know more about this interesting content pipeline.
