What to Watch on OTT

The Rana Daggubati Show: OTT Verdict

On November 23, 2024, The Rana Daggubati Show premiered on Prime Video, bringing South Indian personalities into unscripted, candid conversations. This relaxed style of talk show immediately drew attention for delivering something different in the genre of talk shows.

The Great Indian Kapil Show Season 2 outmatched the 1.2 million viewers of the latter, with 1.3 million viewers in the first week. Although the series still lags behind the 9.3 million initial views of Koffee With Karan, its strong 9/10 IMDb rating suggests it’s being well received.

What is making the show interesting is its informal tone. It features Rana’s famous guests candidly chatting in the most uncensored ways possible.

This approach has been compared to that of some other popular formats, including Neha Dhupia’s, that similarly had informal, off-the-record conversations.

The Rana Daggubati Show has made its space in this tough competition with its real style. It could garner a faithful audience and set itself up in the OTT talk-show business if it maintains this compelling approach.
