The show, hosted by Akshay Kumar, is set to premiere on January 27 on Sony Entertainment Television, with Karisma Kapoor appearing as the special guest in the opening episode. A promo shared by the makers quickly went viral, capturing the duo’s playful banter and easy chemistry.

The highlight of the promo comes when Akshay Kumar teasingly responds to Karisma’s comment, sparking laughter on set. Turning nostalgic, Akshay addresses the audience and fondly recalls that Karisma was his first heroine, with whom he shared his first film and first song. As he compliments her beauty, the iconic song Deedar Ho Gaya, Mujhko Pyaar Gaya from their 1992 film Deedar plays in the background, recreating a moment that fans of the pair instantly recognized. Karisma’s warm smile and gracious thank you added to the emotional charm of the segment, making it a heartfelt tribute to their long-standing on-screen partnership that once ruled the box office.

Akshay Kumar and Karisma Kapoor were among the most popular on-screen pairs of the 1990s and early 2000s, having worked together in several successful films including Suhaag, Khuddar, Dulaara, Jawab, Jaanwar, and Ek Rishtaa: The Bond of Love. Their reunion on Wheel of Fortune taps into that nostalgia while introducing them to a new television audience. The game show follows a simple yet engaging word puzzle format, where contestants spin a wheel to earn cash rewards by guessing hidden letters and solving phrases. Wheel of Fortune will air from Monday to Friday at 9 pm on Sony Entertainment Television, with episodes also available for streaming on Sony LIV, promising a mix of entertainment, nostalgia, and family-friendly fun.
