Sony LIV has unveiled its content slate for 2025, featuring more than 20 titles across languages including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, and Bengali. The list covers dramas, crime series, regional originals, and reality formats. Among the returning shows is Shark Tank India, which is set to air its fifth season. Produced by Studio Next, the business reality series remains one of the platform’s most-watched programmes since its launch in December 2021.
A teaser for Shark Tank India 5 was released in July with the line, “Turning 5 never looked this fierce! More fire. More founders. More deals.” The clip included satirical references to workplace culture, echoing debates triggered by billionaire Narayana Murthy’s call for 70-hour work weeks. In the promo, fictional CEOs complained about inconveniences such as sharing helicopter rides or carrying their own golf bags, while a voiceover ironically advised viewers not to start businesses of their own. The teaser concluded with the reminder that the programme is designed to support entrepreneurs presenting their ventures.
Four Seasons So Far
Since its debut, the series has aired four editions. Season 1 ran from December 2021 to February 2022, Season 2 from January to March 2023, Season 3 from January to March 2024, and Season 4 from January to March 2025. Over this period, the show has become a platform for entrepreneurs to showcase ideas and negotiate funding.
Speculation About the Sharks and Release
A key point of discussion among viewers is whether the original panel of investors will return. Aman Gupta, Namita Thapar, Anupam Mittal, Vineeta Singh, and Peyush Bansal have appeared across multiple seasons, while others including Ashneer Grover, Amit Jain, Ghazal Alagh, Radhika Gupta, Deepinder Goyal, Kunal Bahl, Viraj Bahl, and Ritesh Agarwal have featured as guest investors. Sony has not yet confirmed the line-up for the upcoming season. The teaser’s focus on “more founders” suggests that the format may once again combine familiar names with new business leaders, though official details are awaited.
With its return confirmed in Sony LIV’s 2025 slate, Shark Tank India 5 will once again bring start-up founders and investors together on screen. The release date and the final panel of Sharks are yet to be announced, but it might stream towards the end of this year or early 2026.
