The BSNL Sports Quiz Team is planning a series of special programmes, to be aired on Podhigai TV, with the focus on the World Cup Football and interesting prizes to be won.

In addition, there are also plans for a grand special to be telecast on July 2, in which viewers would be invited to participate and win prizes. With the 2006 World Cup Football Tournament commencing, the show has completed four successful years.

Viewers from all over the country and abroad participate via phone, SMS and e-mail during the hour-long live programme. The Picture Board format, which was introduced in 2005, proved very popular with the viewers getting to choose the number of the question they wished to answer.

The callers, who do not know Tamil, are also encouraged to participate by displaying the questions with an English caption. The show also has callers from abroad. The e-mail contest that the show runs receives over a thousand entries every week and the SMS contest also receives a huge response. Anchored by Dr. Sumanth C.
