Rohit Sharma has added a new section to a resume already stacked with World Cup medals and IPL trophies, stepping in front of the camera in a role that has nothing to do with batting.
On September 19, the former India captain launched his television hosting debut with Family Full House with Rohit Sharma, a family entertainment show that trades cricketing analysis for games, banter and celebrity guests.

The date itself was chosen deliberately. September 19 marks the anniversary of Rohit’s own T20I debut back in 2007, giving the launch a neat symmetry between his playing career and this next chapter away from the field.
Sony had confirmed both the show’s title and premiere date together in a single announcement on August 31, alongside a promotional video that gave fans their first proper look at the format.
Billed as a clean, comedy-driven mix of games and conversation rather than a cricket chat show, the series leans heavily on Rohit’s easy-going public persona, including nods to his now-viral “garden” remark from earlier this year.
Here is everything confirmed about the show’s title, its opening guest list and how to catch new episodes.

What is Rohit Sharma’s TV show called?
The show is titled Family Full House with Rohit Sharma, a Hindi-language family entertainment and game show format.
It marks Rohit’s first venture into television hosting, moving away from cricket-focused programming entirely in favour of light-hearted challenges, interviews and audience interaction built around family fun.
Who were the first guests on Rohit Sharma’s TV show?
The opening episode brought together a mix of familiar faces from cricket and entertainment.
Leading the cricketing contingent were Shreyas Iyer, Shardul Thakur and Abhishek Nayar, all three from Mumbai like Rohit himself, reuniting for a segment that reportedly recreated their viral Sehri Babu dance from earlier in the year.
Bollywood actor Kunal Khemu also appeared, using the platform to promote his upcoming film Vibe, while Shikhar Dhawan featured alongside his wife Sophie Shine.
The episode rounded out its guest list with comedy and entertainment personalities Bharti Singh, Chandan Prabhakar and Haarsh Limbachiyaa, along with social media influencer Jannat Zubair.
Some reports around the premiere also referenced a broader roster of Bollywood names tied to the show’s launch buzz, including Suniel Shetty, Tamannaah Bhatia and Sidharth Malhotra, though the consistent detail across most outlets covering the actual first episode centres on the cricket-and-comedy line-up above.
How to watch Rohit Sharma’s TV show?
Family Full House with Rohit Sharma airs on Sony Entertainment Television and streams on Sony LIV, with the premiere episode having gone out at 9:30 PM IST on September 19.
