Paanchvi Pass or Dus ka Dum?


NO ONE seems to be spared by the TV bug. After Big B in Kaun Banega Crorepati and Shahrukh in Paanchvi Pass, the latest to have been bitten by this bug is Salman Khan alias Sallu who will be hosting a show named Dus ka Dum-Ab India Sochega Percentage Mein. With Shahrukh Khan’s Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain already getting a tremendous response from the viewers, it seems a war may brew up between the six-pack-abs-Khan and the shirtless-Khan. Dus ka Dum will be aired on Sony Entertainment Television (SET) with the controversial Khan playing the host. He has vowed to make people super rich as the prize amount to be given out is claimed to be Rs 10 crores. The concept of Dus ka Dum is very simple. The contestants will have to ’think’ like India. A question would be asked, the answer to which would be the average percentage of a mass opinion poll conducted across India. If the contestants guess the correct answer in accordance with the collective opinion of India, they would start winning from a starting amount of ten thousand rupees. Thus, the game show is simple yet big. Afterwards, the questions asked might make the contestants rich or poor by the power of ten depending upon the answers given by them. Answering five questions correctly would get the contestant to the magical figure of 10 crores. Dus ka Dum game show is based on an American show called ’Power of 10’ hosted by award winning comedian Drew Carey. SET is quite confident that with a sum of 10 crores at stake and with poster boy Salman Khan as the anchor to the show, Dus ka Dum is quite well equipped to match SRK’s Paanchvi Pass. Whats your pick?Paanchvi Pass or Dus ka Dum?
