Jayammu Nischayammu Raa, the new talk show on ZEE5, premiered on August 16, 2025, with Akkineni Nagarjuna as the first guest. He spoke about his personal and professional life, while Jagapathi Babu’s witty and candid hosting quickly drew attention.

Jagapathi Babu, once known as a charming hero, later transitioned into senior roles before reinventing himself as a strong villain with Legend. His popularity grew so much that filmmakers often adjusted schedules to match his availability, with Rangasthalam strengthening his standing further.

In recent years, his screen presence has slowed slightly, especially with more villain roles being filled by actors in other languages. Adapting to the trend, Jagapathi Babu has now stepped into OTT by hosting Jayammu Nischayammu Raa, giving audiences a closer look at their favourite stars.

The format may not be entirely new, but his heartfelt hosting adds freshness. Guests are often surprised by the arrival of family members, friends, or loved ones, creating emotional and memorable moments that keep viewers engaged.

The Nagarjuna episode sparked buzz by showcasing a rarely seen emotional side of the star. With promos featuring Sreeleela and others, fans can expect upcoming episodes to mix candid conversations with heartwarming surprises, making the show both entertaining and engaging.
