Back to school!
In an attempt to consolidate its position from the growing challenge in the general entertainment category, Star Plus is coming up with the Hindi version of the popular American game show ‘Are you Smarter than a Fifth Grader.’
The series will be produced by Synergy Adlabs.
In 50 countries
Confirming the development, Siddharth Basu of Synergy says, “We have bought the rights to produce the ‘Are you Smarter than a Fifth Grader’ in India. It was the most popular game show on television last year and is already on air in around 50 countries. Shah Rukh has agreed to host the show. For the time being, the working title is ‘Bade Hue To Kya Hua.’ ”
For the uninitiated, in ‘Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader,’ an adult participant is asked school-level questions.
And if he fails, he has to leave the show, saying ‘I am not smarter than a fifth grader’ in front of the camera.
Here, the lifelines come in the form of five students of fifth standard. The participant can choose one of them at the beginning of the show.
