Jeeto Pakistan (Urdu: {{Nastaliq|جیتو پاکستان;) is a Pakistani game show, hosted by actor Fahad Mustafa on ARY Digital. The show was launched on May 18,2014.[1] [2] [3] [4] It has been called the "biggest game show" in Pakistan.[5] Jeeto Pakistan's participants are selected randomly from a studio audience who require passes to attend the show.[6]
The show is divided into several segments, each offering contestants prizes in return for achieving a set of challenges or game tasks given by the host.[1] [7] The prizes offered range from cars and motorcycles to gold, cash, vacation packages, and household items. The show is funded by sponsors, advertisers, and commercial brands.[8]
Jeeto Pakistan is occasionally broadcast from other cities, with some shows having been held in Lahore,[1] Islamabad,[9] Faisalabad, Multan, and Dubai.[2]
During the month of Ramadan every year, the show runs a daily transmission in the evening.[10]

See main article: Jeeto Pakistan League. In the Ramadan season of 2020, the show's format was changed in light of the coronavirus pandemic and the studio audience was eliminated. Instead, a "league"-based format was introduced where teams representing five major cities would compete against each other, with each team led by a notable celebrity. New contestants would be drawn for each episode while maintaining social distancing, and the top two teams with most points would qualify for a final play-off. Members of the public would be able to participate in the show through live calls.[11]
In 2021, Multan Tigers was introduced as 6th team of Jeeto Pakistan League. Shoaib Malik was selected as the new team's captain. Sarfraz Ahmed was replaced by Aijaz Aslam as the captain of Quetta Knights team.
In 2022, Ushna Shah joined the league after replacing Humayun Saeed as Karachi lion’s captain. Sarfaraz Ahmed returned as the captain of Quetta knight and Aijaz Aslam was assigned a new team named Gujranwala Bulls.
