Production[edit]
Season 1[edit]
On 5 October 2018, Vikas Gupta released the first promo of Ace of Space 1.[7]
Eighteen contestants fought it out in six rooms to win the audiences' hearts and space in the house. They had to perform difficult tasks to ensure survival.[8] After 71 days, the contestant with the highest votes and space walked away with the title of Ace of Space.[9]
As the mastermind of the show, it will be pretty exciting to play with the minds of contestants and bring out the basic instinct of survival to mark one's territory using your heart and brain equally.
Season 2[edit]
On 3 August 2019, Vikas Gupta shared the first promo of Ace of Space 2.[11]
Eighteen contestants were divided into two sections: Team Kings, who had access to luxuries and Team Jacks, who did not have access to even basic necessities.[12] They had to perform tasks and manage survival for 72 days. Coupled with this, the season had an enhanced digital interaction.[13]
Ace of Space 1 was an experimental show which did extremely well, and we succeeded in making our way into our viewers heart, as we tested the houseguests and made them choose between head and heart. With the second season it’s going to be more tough and challenging as I will be testing their beliefs and conditioning.
Ace of Quarantine[edit]
A spin-off series Ace of Quarantine, hosted by Divya Aggarwal and Varun Sood was launched on 12 July 2020.[15]
