Jiniya Chatterjee is making headlines after bagging Rs. 9.6 lakh and a sponsored holiday after winning the fifth season of Wakefit’s Sleep Internship which requires competitors to sleep for a period of 60 days

The unusual internship, organised by home and furnishing company Wakefit, required participants to prioritise sleep, maintain consistent sleeping schedules and take part in creative weekly challenges. Out of more than 2 lakh applicants, only 10 candidates were selected after several rounds of screening and personal interviews. They competed over approximately 60 days, tracking their sleep performance, with daily scores determining their positions on a leaderboard.
