Each episode features celebrity guests who usually appear to promote their latest films in a comedy-focussed talk show format. Several stars from Malayalam film and television industry has participated in this show. This show is inspired by Comedy Nights with Kapil.
Mukesh is the permanent guest in the show playing the role of Badai Bungalow's owner. Due to high viewership, the timing was changed to every Sunday at 8:30 pm.[when?] The show replaced the long running comedy serial Cinemala. The show was wrapped on 3 June 2018.
The second season of the series premiered since 3 March 2019 on Asianet channel.
Controversy
Ramesh Pisharody's absence to the programme for around a month has led to a decrease in the show's popularity. The alternative Rajesh also falls short as a replacement for Pisharody especially in bringing liveliness and ability to engage guests with humour rather than showering with all praise and epitomising them as beyond human which fails to ground with the Malayali audience. His absence or speculated termination was met with high negative feedback through social media. Though the main host of the show Mukesh said this was a temporary setback.
Rajesh, who was already popular as an anchor, later added a video featuring him with Mukesh, Pisharody and Arya, clarifying this point. Later, Pisharody returned to the show, and the popularity increased again.
