She Slept 60 Days and Won Rs2.8 MillionWorld

Participants were required to keep a regular sleep schedule and get enough rest each night, while also taking part in a series of entertaining weekly challenges. Their daily performance was assessed through a scoring system, with contestants ranked according to their results and the best performer each week named the Sleeper of the Week.

The challenges were anything but restful. Contestants had to recreate famous movie scenes while pretending to sleep, review their sleep habits over a week, and casually slip the words blanket or pillow into conversation 10 times without anyone noticing.

A night in a personalised sleep pod

In the final round, the remaining contestants faced two major challenges, including spending a night in personalised sleeping environments. The winner was selected on the basis of sleep scores, and Chatterjee came out on top.

Her prize was a cash award of 963,400 Indian rupees — more than Rs2.8 million in Pakistani currency — along with a travel voucher from the company. It was a fitting reward for two months of disciplined rest.

The contest has also become a talking point about sleep itself. Doctors often say that regular, good-quality sleep is one of the simplest ways to protect health, yet millions of people struggle to get enough of it. A competition that rewards rest has turned that advice into entertainment — and, for one woman, into a life-changing prize.

The competition was first launched in 2019. During its first four seasons, it received more than one million applications, while 65 participants had previously received cash prizes of 100,000 Indian rupees each. Chatterjee’s win takes the contest to a new level — proof, if any were needed, that a good night’s sleep can be worth a fortune.
