This is a game show telecasted in Sun TV from 8.30 to 9.30 PM on Saturdays and Sundays every week. This show is hosted by the anchor Rishi. The maximum prize money one can win from this show is 50 lakhs. Besides the contestant and anchor, there is a third and invisible person called Banker available in this game. This programme is based on the famous english game show 'Deal or No Deal'.I think this game show is purely based on luck as there are no questions to be answered.But it is really interesting to watch sometimes.
There are totally 26 boxes/suitcases in the game show with the amount ranging from Rs.1 to Rs.50 lakhs. 26 boxes are shown in the board as two columns with the colour Silver and Gold. Basically the silver coloured column will have the lowest amounts and the gold column will have the highest amounts.
The amounts that are present in Silver column are
- Rs. 1
- Rs. 5
- Rs. 10
- Rs. 25
- Rs. 50
- Rs. 100
- Rs. 250
- Rs. 500
- Rs. 1000
- Rs. 2000
- Rs. 3000

26 beautiful girls wearing different costumes every week will be keeping these boxes.Which box contains what amount is not known to the contestant. There is also a 27th box reserved for the viewers of the show. The viewers have to answer the question asked at the beginning of the programme by sending it through before 12 PM of the next day. 5 lucky winners who answered correctly will be given each the cash amount present in the 27th box.
Now the game begins. The contestant has to choose any one from the 26 boxes. The girl who is having the box gives the box to the anchor and he keeps it near the contestant. We don't know how much money will be there in this box. Either the contestant may win money more than that in the box or less than that. The game has several rounds and in each round the contestant has to select the boxes to be opened. The banker offers an amount at the end of every round.When the banker offers the amount, there are basically two choices for the contestant : Deal or No Deal. If the contestant says "Deal" , the game is finished and they can walks away with the amount offered by the banker. If the contestant says "No Deal", he/she rejects the offer by the banker and continues the game. There is a red coloured button kept in the box near the contestant. If the contestant closes the box and does not press the button, it symbolises "No Deal". If the contestant presses the red colour button, then it symbolises "Deal".
The amount offered by the banker depends on the amount present in the unopened / remaining boxes at the end of every round. If the amount in the unopened boxes are high, the banker's offer will also be high. If the amount in the unopened boxes are low, the banker's offer will also be low. For example, if there are three boxes left with the following amount 1 lakh, 25 lakh, Rs.5000 the banker may offer 7 to 10 lakhs as the unopened box has got the big amount 25 lakhs in it. If the contestant opens boxes with the amount in sliver columns, then there is a chance of a high offer from the banker as the low amounts are getting eliminated and the contestant's box will have a high amount.
Comments:
When the game show started, i was watching this interestingly. But nowadays iam not watching this programme watch. I think till now nobody has got the full amount 50 lakhs. Also these days all the contestants participating are having some financial problem. For eg, some people need money for medical support for their relatives, some many need money for their sister's marriage, some may need money for the children's education etc. I really wonder how they select these people who have some financial need to the show. So these days whenever you watch the show, you can hear a sad story for sure.
