Talent hunt campaigns
Hipi G.O.A.T
In November 2021, Hipi launched a virtual singing talent hunt called Hipi G.O.A.T (Hipi Greatest of All Time) judged by Grammy nominee and playback singer Shilpa Rao and hosted by Rupali Jagga, commonly referred to as The Shakira of India.[7] G.O.A.T was an 8-week long contest with over 45,000 singing entries. The contest had two co-winners - Chirag Tomar and Sireesha Bhagavatula. They got a chance to perform at the finale of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa along with Shilpa Rao.[8][9]
Post winning Hipi G.O.A.T, Sireesha got her first major playback singing break with A. R. Rahman.[9]

In March 2021, ZEE5 Hipi began its association with Sri Lanka legends for the Road Safety World Series 2020-21, and launched Hipi Skill Challenge, where several sportsmen and women nominated each other on video creation challenges.
