MUMBAI: Come 22 August and Sab TV is all set to launch a comedy reality show called Comedy Superstar.

Slated to launch in the 10 pm slot, the show has roped in Sushmita Sen, Sonu Sood and Shekhar Suman as judges, who will search for India’s next comedy idol.

Produced by Pyramid Productions, Comedy Superstar will see aspiring comedians from different segments of the society battling it out to win the title.

Hosted by Jay Soni and Sudeepa Singh, the format of the show is integrated in terms of stages, elimination, selection process and scoring. Unlike most reality shows, Comedy Superstar will not be open to social media or audience polling. The winner will be named solely based upon the judges’ discretion.

Sab TV senior EVP and business head Anooj Kapoor said, “We have explored with the format of the show and it is different from what we have done before. We believe in providing a platform to budding talent, so that they can exhibit their flair.”
