Desi Bling trailer
New city. New circle. Whole new game. Netflix today unveiled the trailer and premiere date for Desi Bling, the upcoming reality spectacle premiering May 20, 2026. Set in one of Dubai's most elite desi social circles, the series follows Karan Kundrra and Tejasswi Prakash as they step into a dazzling world of billionaires, brunches, Birkin bags, and bigger egos- where fitting in is far more complicated than it looks.
From extravagant yacht parties and couture-filled closets to shifting loyalties, emotional confrontations, and explosive social dynamics, the trailer offers a peek into a world where appearances are everything and gossip travels faster than Lamborghinis. As Karan and Tejasswi navigate this high-stakes ecosystem, the line between glamour and chaos quickly begins to blur. The trailer also teases glamorous appearances by Tiger Shroff, Shilpa Shetty, Sunny Leone, Vivek Oberoi and more- bringing the who's who of Bollywood into Dubai's glittering social scene.
Speaking about stepping into the world of Desi Bling, Karan Kundrra shares, "Desi Bling gave Tejasswi and me a chance to step into a world that's completely different from anything we've done before. Yes, there's glamour and luxury, but what really surprised us were the relationships, personalities, and dynamics within this circle. It's exciting, unpredictable, and very real in many ways. We're excited for audiences across the world to experience this journey with us on Netflix."
Tejasswi Prakash adds, "This show has been such a special journey for me. It's a beautiful window into the glistening world of Dubai, but at the same time, it has all the elements of classic desi masala. Also, it's very different from anything I've done in the past because rarely do you see such a blend of reality with fiction. There are emotions, relationships, drama- all of which are bound to keep the viewers hooked. I'm grateful to Netflix and Mazen Laham for taking such a keen interest in our lives."
