We have seen
the playback
singers
performing
in various
stage shows;
we have also
seen them
judging
various
reality
shows. But
this time,
the playback
singers are
ready to don
a new role
and they are
no longer
hosts or
judges, but
they are
participants
on Vijay
TV’s UniverCell ‘Paatu
Paadava’.

Popular
playback
singers like
Deepan
Chakravarthi,
Srilekha
Parthasarathy,
Satyan,
Krish,
Prasana,
Kalpana,
Rahul
Nambiyar,
Malathi,
Roshni,
Naveen,
Jaya,
Yugendran,
and many
others will
participate
in Vijay
TV’s
UniverCell
Paatu
Paadava.
So, how
does the
show works?
A playback
singer will
be prompted
to sing a
song with
right lyrics
for
increasing
amounts of
cash prizes.
After each
correct
answer, the
contestant
can continue
playing,
risking what
he has
already
earned, or
quit the
game and
take home
all the
money he or
she has
earned.
If the
contestant
continues
playing and
is
successful
in
completing
eight song
lyrics, he
or she takes
home a grand
prize of 5
lakhs.
The
contestant
would start
singing to
the lyrics
which appear
on screen,
the screen
would
suddenly go
blank and
the
participant
is
challenged
to recall
the song
from their
memory.
There is
also 3
lifelines
which would
help the
participants
incase they
forget the
lyrics in
half way.
‘50:50’,
‘Ask a
friend’ and
‘fill in the
blanks’ are
the three
lifelines
that will be
provided to
every
contestant.
The prize
money begins
from 10, 000
and the
winner takes
home 5 lakhs
once he
clears all
the rounds
successfully.
The
various
rounds which
the
participants
would face
are Lyricist
round,
Rajnikanth
hits,
Kamalahaasan
hits,
Barathiraja
hits, Trisha
hits, Latest
romantic
hits, Gana
hits,
Mother’s
Special
