10 ka Dum
Dus Ka Dum is based on the international show Power of 10, which is already a hit in several countries around the world like Australia, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece and Russia.
Show format, five simple questions are asked the contestants. The questions would have already been asked a cross section of Indians across the country. And the contestants’ answers must match the already polled answers. For example: What percentage of Indian men think it’s important to drink a glass of milk on their wedding night? You must think like India before you answer.
The journey to Rs 10 crore is simple and fast—after all, all it takes is five steps. The questions are always interesting and thought provoking, but your answers have to be more accurate with each step. For a question for Rs 10, 000 your guess needs to be within 40 per cent of the polled answers, which means you could be 20% above or less. But the more questions you face, the lesser your range.
Rs 10,000: 40%
Rs 1, 00,000: 30%
Rs 10, 00,000: 20%
Rs 1 crore: 10%
Rs 10 crore: Bulls eye!
The best part of the show is that anyone can win—you don’t need an educational qualification or be a bookworm or a quizzer or a net surfer. All you need is common sense and insight into how the rest of India thinks. So get going—observe the Indian populace and enjoy the show.
