History
Maja with Sruja (2010)
Maja with Sruja was a sketch comedy show that was aired on Asianet Suvarna during 2010.[54] The show was directed by Vijaya Prasad, known for his famous directorial venture Silly Lalli. He is also the director of the film Sidlingu. The identity of Vijaya Prasad was never revealed in the show. Srujan Lokesh hosted the show and veterans like Mimicry Dayanand, Arun Sagar and Antony Kamal were a part of the comedy focused talk show. Celebrities were being invited for casual talk as well as film promotions. The show ended in 2011 despite being highly appreciated by the viewers. Srujan Lokesh hinted about a new season in the finale of Maja with Sruja but this did not happen. Srujan Lokesh then became busy with his home production 'Lokesh Productions' and produced different shows including 'Kaasige Toss' and 'Chota Champion'. He also hosted and judged a cookery reality show Kitchen Kiladigalu with Sihi Kahi Chnadru in 2012. Later in 2013, Arun Sagar was roped in as a contestant for Season 1 of Bigg Boss Kannada by ETV Kannada where he stood out as the runner-up of the season.
Comedy Circle (2014)
Arun Sagar, after coming out of Bigg Boss house, started another sketch comedy show on ETV Kannada named as Comedy Circle.[55] Though this show appeared to be reincarnation of Maja with Sruja with all the recurring characters, it missed Srujan Lokesh on the show. The show was directed by Vijaya Prasad again, and hosted by Arun Sagar initially. The casting was expanded for the show, which included Arun Sagar, Shalini, Mimicry Dayanand, Antony Kamal, Mimicry Gopi, Mithra, and Girija Lokesh (Srujan Lokesh's mother) in the main cast. For unknown reasons, Arun Sagar was present only for first few episodes. Later, Shalini took up the hosting for Comedy Circle and the show successfully completed around 40 episodes. It is notable that, during the telecast of Comedy Circle, Srujan Lokesh was inside the Bigg Boss house as a contestant for the Season 2 of Bigg Boss Kannada aired on Asianet Suvarna where he also, became runner-up of the season.
