Fame Gurukul is an Indian reality show on Sony Entertainment Television which premiered on 27 June 2005.[1] The program was produced by the same production house of Indian Idol. The concept of the show was to select a pair of India's best singers/performers.

It is based on the Spanish Operación Triunfo and international Star Academy format of Endemol, better known in English under the UK title Fame Academy. Fame Gurukul started out with 16 contestants living in a musical performance academy (Gurukul). Every week (normally) one contestant was voted out of the show, and so on until two remained in the end.
