The largest global sports media property in Asian history, ONE Championship™ (ONE), has announced that the hit reality television series, “The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition,” will premiere in India on Republic TV on 20 March 2021 with new episodes airing every Saturday.

A multi-skilled entrepreneur originally from Pune, Niraj Puran Rao, joins the show as one of 16 candidates all vying for the right to be called “The Apprentice.”Coming from a humble navy background, Niraj spent his childhood mostly traveling in the first few years of his life. In 2017, he won India’s “Asli Champion,” a reality TV competition for the physically and mentally fittest men and women in India.  Niraj joined “The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition” so he could give back to his country and ignite millennial entrepreneurship in India. He is now looking to conquer the boardroom and earn a spot alongside ONE Championship Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong as his protege.

This brand new edition of “The Apprentice” invites 16 candidates handpicked from around the world to compete in a high-stakes competition involving business and physical challenges. The winner will receive a US$250,000 job offer to work directly under ONE Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong for a year as his protege in Singapore. While Niraj represents India on the show, the international cast of candidates represents Philippines, Singapore, Russia, United States, Thailand, Indonesia, Venezuela, Japan, New Zealand and Germany.

Fans in India will also be happy to witness a series of special guests on the show, including Indian Wrestling Champion Ritu “The Indian Tigress” Phogat, Zilingo CEO Ankiti Bose, Everise CEO Sudhir Agarwal, and Zoom CEO Eric Yuan, among others.
