Format


Sachin Khedekar will ask a set of 15 questions, and the contestant who answers all of them correctly will be awarded a prize of ₹1,00,00,000 (1 crore).
The questions each have a time limit of 30 seconds, and each successive correct response increases the assigned prize in a way that the 15th correct response awards 1 crore rupees.
The game will have 3 lifelines, which are the following:

50-50, where 2 incorrect options are removed
Phone A Friend, where a friend will assist
Audience Poll, where the audience will vote on the question asked to the contestant and select an option of their choice. The options with their corresponding votes will be graphically represented and the contestant will have to make a choice among those.
Selecting a wrong answer will lead to immediate termination and the contestant will have to leave with only the amount of prize assigned for the nearest 5th correct response (meaning if the contestant gets the 1st through 5th question wrong, he ends up with nothing, or if the contestant gets the 6th through 10th question wrong, then he ends up with only the prize for the 5th correct response, and so on and so forth so that if the contestant gets the 11th through 15th question wrong, then he ends up with only the prize for the 10th correct response).
That said, the contestant will have the power to quit at any moment of the show to receive the current prize and avoid risking loss of prize for all correct responses past the nearest 5th correct response.
