Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hai? is a
studio-based game show in which succeeding contestants compete
for a large sum of money by attempting to answer questions taken
from primary school class materials. The format outlined below
is how the show works.
Game Play Each round is played by an
individual contestant, who is presented with the chance to win
up to Rs 5 crores by answering 11 questions taken from class
materials (e.g. textbooks or workbooks) of first to fifth class.
The contestant is presented with 10 subject cards, which he may
answer in the order of his choice. Each correct answer moves the
contestant higher up the ladder of rupee value. If a contestant
answers all 10 questions correctly, he is given a chance to
answer an 11th question for Rs 5 crores.
Each time a question is answered, the contestant must "lock in"
the answer by saying it out loud and pressing a buzzer.
As each new question is read, the contestant is given the option
to drop out with the amount of money currently in his bank. If
the contestant chooses to answer the question, but gives the
wrong answer, he walks away with nothing (during questions 1-5)
or with Rs. 2, 00,000 (value of question 5).
The above mechanism varies on the 11th question, if the
contestant should reach it. The 11th question is drawn from a
separate pool of class five questions. Unlike previous
questions, the contestant must commit to answering or walking
away based on the subject alone. He or she will not be allowed
to hear the question before making this decision.
The contestant also has three lifelines called cheats to use
over the course of a round. All these cheats involve his
classmates, which is a group of children seated on stage who are
answering the same questions as the contestant. Every two
questions, a new classmate joins the contestant and becomes his
teammate for those two questions. The contestant can use his
cheats at any time during the first 10 questions.
Cheats The first cheat is called Taak
Jhaak, which means that the contestant has the opportunity
to review his current teammate's answer before submitting his
own.
The second cheat is Copy, in which the contestant may opt
not to answer the question at all, but rather, let his current
teammate answer for him. Unlike the "copy your classmate" cheat,
in this instance, the contestant cannot reject his teammate's
answer, but is stuck with it.
The final cheat is Bachao. This cheat is triggered
automatically if the contestant gives a wrong answer. If the
contestant's current partner turns out to have the correct
answer, the contestant is then saved.
The only instance in which two cheats can be used on the same
question is if the contestant chooses Taak Jhaak, rejects
the kid's correct answer, gives a wrong answer himself, and is
then saved by the kid. Other than this one scenario, the cheats
must necessarily be used individually.
Once all three cheats have been used, the kids will stay in the
"class" and no longer join the contestant at the podium.
If the contestant makes it to the 11th and final question, he
must tackle that question without help, even if he has not used
his cheats.
International Performance The format was
originally created in the U.S and has been adapted in several
countries worldwide.
