The first season premiered on 12 September 2021.

==Format==
''Survivor Tamil'' is a reality show based on the original [[Sweden|Swedish]] [[Robinson (TV series)|''Expedition Robinson'']] format developed by [[Charlie Parsons]]. Unlike the original Survivor, Survivor Tamil features only celebrity contestants. The contestants (known as "Survivors") live in a isolated island that is isolated from any type of modern-day setting. Survivors will be divided into two different tribes in the start of the competition known as the 'Launch Day'. Survivors will need to fight for immunity in order for their tribe to be safe from facing tribal council and elimination. Each week, the losing team will have to attend tribal council, where they will vote out one of their team members. Whoever receives the highest number of votes from their tribe will be eliminated from the game.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2021-07-02|title=Survivor Tamil: Action King Arjun to host Survivor Tamil series on Zee Tamil|url=https://thenewscrunch.com/survivor-tamil-action-king-arjun-to-host-survivor-tamil-series-on-zee-tamil/37378/|access-date=2021-08-02|website=thenewscrunch.com|language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2021-07-27|title=Zee Tamil set to launch the worldwide famous reality show "Survivor" in India|url=https://www.iwmbuzz.com/television/releases/zee-tamil-set-to-launch-the-worldwide-famous-reality-show-survivor-in-india/2021/07/27|access-date=2021-08-02|website=www.iwmbuzz.com|language=en-US}}</ref> The winner of the competition receives a ₹1 crore cash prize for avoiding elimination.

===Rules of the Island===
Survivors will only be able to bring a limited amount of clothes to the island and won't be able to bring personal belongings with them. All the survivors are strictly told to speak in [[Tamil language|Tamil]].

===Island===
There will be two different islands for each tribe groups to stay at, and one separate island for where the tasks and tribal councils will take place at.

Survivors will need to create their own shelter such as tents in the island they are in, at the same time they will need to find ways to make food using limited amount of items on the island. Survivors will need to find a way to start up fire to cook their meals.

===Airing===
Daily episodes present the main tasks the survivors participate in such as 'immunity' or 'reward' challenges and focuses on the tribal councils held each week. The team losing the "immunity challenge" will have to sit in the tribal council, where the members of the team should vote for eliminating one weak person from their team.

===Vote Out===
Survivors will gather in the tribal council every week to vote out a member from their own tribe out of the game. However, if one of the members win "immunity," they will be safe for the week and can't be voted out of the game that week.

===Jury Votes===
At the last tribal council, all the eliminated contestants who have been previously voted out will become jury members and will vote one of the member out of the last three remaining finalist to who they think should win the game and emerge as the "sole survivor". After the vote is counted, the finalist with the highest number of votes from the jury members will win the show.

In ''[[Survivor (Tamil season 1)]]'', Saran Shakthi was accused and proven guilty of using a mobile phone from which he borrowed from a camera man in the island. However he was not disqualified from the show and still competed, causing the contestants to sense a gust of [[leniency]] in the air. He also accused fellow contestant [[Vijayalakshmi (Tamil actress)|Vijayalakshmi]] of using a mobile phone, but ended up being reprimanded by the host.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Survivor Tamil, October 12, highlights: Arjun gives Saran Shakthi and others a last warning; Vanessa Cruez and Narayan become tribe leaders|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tv/news/tamil/survivor-tamil-october-12-highlights-arjun-gives-saran-shakthi-and-others-a-last-warning-vanessa-cruez-and-narayan-become-tribe-leaders/articleshow/86989027.cms|access-date=2021-10-17|website=[[Times Of India]]|language=en-US}}</ref>
