The fifth season of India's Got Talent premiered on 11 January 2014. Bharti Singh returned to present the show along with Mantra in auditions and VJ Andy in the semi-finals and finals. Malaika Arora Khan and Karan Johar returned for their second season each, while Kirron Kher returned for her fifth season.

Season overview
[edit]
The fifth season was announced an year later the conclusion of the previous season with the same judging panel including Kirron Kher, Karan Johar and Malaika Arora. Bharti Singh and Mantra joined as the hosts, but later, prior to the beginning of the semi-finals, VJ Andy was roped in place of Mantra due to prior shooting commitments.[2]
During an audition day, Karan Johar was absent due to his film productions and hence, Madhuri Dixit stood up for him.
By the time that the public auditions for the fifth season's competition had begun, the Got Talent franchise was beginning to update its format for auditions across international editions through the inclusion of a new feature – the "Golden Buzzer", placed in front of the stage, far from judges' desk. First introduced on Germany's Got Talent, the new format meant that those auditioning for a place in the semi-finals of the competition for this year could earn an automatic place in the semi-finals, without competing in Hoonar Chakra round. It can be pressed by any of the judges, twice, regardless of the opinions about their performance.
Of the participants that took part, thirty made it past this stage and into the five semi-finals. Amongst the thirty, Shri Ramnataka Niketan and Ki Umjer got the golden buzzer from Kirron Kher, SMS Group and Saei Jamshed from Karan Johar and Beat Breakers and Shounak & Shreya from Malaika Arora Khan during the auditions. Six acts appeared in each semi-final, with two advancing to the finale, one by the public vote and another by the choice of judges amongst the second and third position in the public vote. This year, the judges chose two wildcard contestants, Rohit Jaiswal and Negative Vibes, who were eliminated in the culling and put them in the fifth semi-final along with the other four original acts for the public vote. The following below lists the results of each participant's overall performance in this season:
