Nai-Rich

Made in Kenya

Nai-Rich follows five influential Kenyans, giving a glimpse into the glitz and glam of their daily lives in the entertainment industry. All episodes are ready to binge.

Off the back of the record-breaking The Real Housewives of Nairobi, Showmax has unveiled its next Original reality series in Kenya, Nai-Rich.

Nai-Rich takes viewers on a thrilling journey into the lives of five influential figures that have made their way to the top against all odds and are now making a killing out of it. They share their lives behind the glitz and glam of social media, giving viewers a glimpse behind the curtains of their drama-filled lives as they navigate friendship, love, family and business in the Kenyan entertainment industry.

The 13-part reality series is produced by Samuel Maina, popularly known as Sammy Dee. “The idea for Nai-Rich was born from a desire to showcase the vibrant and dynamic lifestyle of Nairobi's young elites, blending luxury, ambition and challenges they face,” says Sammy Dee. “It aims to highlight the unique culture and diverse personalities that make Nairobi such a fascinating place. The cast became stars through social media, and some of them had to turn lemons into lemonade as they became stars in unconventional ways.”

All the episodes for Nai-Rich are available to binge on Showmax.
