The Indian version of the international Amazon original series LOL has been announced by Amazon Prime Video, with actors Arshad Warsi and Boman Irani attached as hosts. Titled LOL- Hasse Toh Phasse, the six-episode unscripted reality comedy show will stream from April 30.

The SOL Production-backed series will feature 10 comedians - Aadar Malik, Aakash Gupta, Aditi Mittal, Ankita Shrivastava, Cyrus Broacha, Gaurav Gera, Kusha Kapila, Mallika Dua, Sunil Grover and Suresh Menon.

The show will pit the professional comedians against each other for six consecutive hours, "to make the others in the house laugh and more importantly, ensure that they do not laugh or even smile themselves," a statement from the streamer read. The last contestant to remain straight-faced will be the winner and will take home a grand prize.

The show, which was originally developed in Japan, has been adapted in countries like Australia, Mexico, Germany, Italy and Canada.

Warsi, who has previously worked with Irani in successful films like the Munna Bhai franchise and Jolly LLB, said he is delighted to collaborate with the actor again for the show. "Boman and I are tasked with keeping a close eye on the ten contestants who will be coming under one roof only with one intention - to be the last one laughing. I can't wait to see what these talented comedians come up with and how far they'll go to take home the prize," Warsi said.

For Irani, LOL- Hasse Toh Phasse offered an opportunity to get into a "fresh" comedy space. "The Indian audiences love comedy, and with an entirely unique format with ten of India's most hilarious comedians, this show is power-packed with absolute insanity, laughter and entertainment," Irani added.
