'''India's Got Talent''' is a televised [[India]]n [[Hindi|Hindi language]] [[talent show]] series and is part of the ''[[Got Talent franchise]]''. The program is produced and distributed by [[Fremantle (company)|Fremantle]] and [[Syco Entertainment]]. The show aired on [[Colors TV]] till season 8. Since season 9 the show is airing on [[Sony Entertainment Television]]. | |||
==Format== | |||
=== Auditions === | |||
Each year's competition begins with a set of audition stages, the first being the "Producers' Auditions", is conducted across various cities in the India. This stage is open to all forms of acts and judged by an independent group, and thus determines who will take part in the next stage of auditions titled "Judges' Auditions". These are held in a public venue, within select cities across the country, and are attended by the judges handling that year's contest. | |||
Each participant reaching this stage of auditions is held offstage from the main performing area in a waiting room, and given a number that denotes when they will perform. Upon being called before the judges, the participant is given few minutes to demonstrate their act, with a live audience present for all performances. Each judge is given a buzzer, and may use it during a performance if they are unimpressed, dislike what is being performed, or feel the act is a waste of their time. If a participant is buzzed by all judges, their performance is automatically over. At the end of a performance, the judges give constructive criticism and feedback about what they saw, whereupon they are each given a vote. A participant requires a majority vote approving their performance to proceed to the next stage, otherwise they are eliminated from the program at that stage. Many acts that move on may be cut or forfeit their place, due to the limited slots available for the next stage. Filming for each season begins when the Judges' Auditions are taking place, with the show's presenter standing in the wings of each venue's stage to interview, and give personal commentary on a participant's performance. | |||
From the ninth season, acts who did not attend live auditions could instead submit a taped audition online via [[SonyLIV]]. | |||
In the fifth season, the show added a new format to the auditions in the form of the "Golden Buzzer", which began to make appearances within the [[Got Talent]] franchise, since it was first introduced on Germany's Got Talent. During auditions, each judge is allowed to use the Golden Buzzer to send an act automatically into the semi-finals, regardless of the opinion of the other judges. The only rule to the buzzer was that a judge could use it only twice per season. The hosts were allowed to use the Golden Buzzer for an act in the eighth season only. | |||
' | Filming for each series begins during the Judges' Auditions, and always consists of recording taken from each venue of auditions and backstage scenes within the wings and waiting area. Footage taken by production staff is then edited into a series of episodes consisting of montages of scenes from multiple venues, consisting of the most notable auditions (the best, worst and funniest made) – along with interviews with some of the notable participants that auditioned, and recorded backstage scenes of the hosts overseeing the performances from the wings. | ||
== | === Judge cuts === | ||
=== | This format for this has been varied for the seasons. Before season 6, the judges would choose the acts going into the semi-final in a separate room and can call a participant to view his performance again if required. | ||
After season 6, this set was divided into two steps- Hunar War ''(War of Talent)'' and Spotlight. All the contestants except the Golden buzzers have to compete against each other to win the seat the semi-finals. | |||
In season 9, with reduced number of contestants and change in format, this whole procedure was wrapped under 10 minutes with only 14 contestants making it to the quarter-finals. | |||
=== Semi-finals and Finals === | |||
Before season 9, participants who pass their auditions and secure a place in the semi-finals of the competitions, including those who received the Golden Buzzer after the format's introduction and subsequent amendment to match other ''Got Talent'' editions, are divided into groups and compete against each other to secure a place within the live final of the competition. Each semi-final can only have two participants advance into the final, and these are determined by two votes. The first is public phone-in vote (via a special phone-number), in which the last two digits correspond to each semi-finalist (via SonyLiv app from season 9). Once the vote period is ended and the results counted and fully verified, the semi-finalist with the highest total of votes is announced as the winner of the semi-final and secures their place in the final. The second vote involves the judges and takes place after the result, in which they vote between the two semi-finalists placed 2nd and 3rd respectively in the public vote, with the participant receiving the majority vote securing their place in the finals. | |||
In season 9, the top 14 contestants performed every weekend and one gets eliminated each week. The bottom two/three contestants from the public vote are brought on the stage and judges have to choose one to safe. Before season 6, each judge vote was revealed but after that one of the judges tell the anonymously tell the final verdict. | |||
There are 2 wild-cards, public's and judges' which are brought upon either in the pre-final or during quarter final (as per season 9). | |||

India's Got Talent is a televised Indian Hindi language talent show series and is part of the Got Talent franchise. The program is produced and distributed by Fremantle and Syco Entertainment. The show aired on Colors TV till season 8. Since season 9 the show is airing on Sony Entertainment Television.
Format[edit]
Auditions[edit]
Each year's competition begins with a set of audition stages, the first being the "Producers' Auditions", is conducted across various cities in the India. This stage is open to all forms of acts and judged by an independent group, and thus determines who will take part in the next stage of auditions titled "Judges' Auditions". These are held in a public venue, within select cities across the country, and are attended by the judges handling that year's contest.
Each participant reaching this stage of auditions is held offstage from the main performing area in a waiting room, and given a number that denotes when they will perform. Upon being called before the judges, the participant is given few minutes to demonstrate their act, with a live audience present for all performances. Each judge is given a buzzer, and may use it during a performance if they are unimpressed, dislike what is being performed, or feel the act is a waste of their time. If a participant is buzzed by all judges, their performance is automatically over. At the end of a performance, the judges give constructive criticism and feedback about what they saw, whereupon they are each given a vote. A participant requires a majority vote approving their performance to proceed to the next stage, otherwise they are eliminated from the program at that stage. Many acts that move on may be cut or forfeit their place, due to the limited slots available for the next stage. Filming for each season begins when the Judges' Auditions are taking place, with the show's presenter standing in the wings of each venue's stage to interview, and give personal commentary on a participant's performance.
From the ninth season, acts who did not attend live auditions could instead submit a taped audition online via SonyLIV.
In the fifth season, the show added a new format to the auditions in the form of the "Golden Buzzer", which began to make appearances within the Got Talent franchise, since it was first introduced on Germany's Got Talent. During auditions, each judge is allowed to use the Golden Buzzer to send an act automatically into the semi-finals, regardless of the opinion of the other judges. The only rule to the buzzer was that a judge could use it only twice per season. The hosts were allowed to use the Golden Buzzer for an act in the eighth season only.
Filming for each series begins during the Judges' Auditions, and always consists of recording taken from each venue of auditions and backstage scenes within the wings and waiting area. Footage taken by production staff is then edited into a series of episodes consisting of montages of scenes from multiple venues, consisting of the most notable auditions (the best, worst and funniest made) – along with interviews with some of the notable participants that auditioned, and recorded backstage scenes of the hosts overseeing the performances from the wings.
Judge cuts[edit]
This format for this has been varied for the seasons. Before season 6, the judges would choose the acts going into the semi-final in a separate room and can call a participant to view his performance again if required.
After season 6, this set was divided into two steps- Hunar War (War of Talent) and Spotlight. All the contestants except the Golden buzzers have to compete against each other to win the seat the semi-finals.
In season 9, with reduced number of contestants and change in format, this whole procedure was wrapped under 10 minutes with only 14 contestants making it to the quarter-finals.
Semi-finals and Finals[edit]
Before season 9, participants who pass their auditions and secure a place in the semi-finals of the competitions, including those who received the Golden Buzzer after the format's introduction and subsequent amendment to match other Got Talent editions, are divided into groups and compete against each other to secure a place within the live final of the competition. Each semi-final can only have two participants advance into the final, and these are determined by two votes. The first is public phone-in vote (via a special phone-number), in which the last two digits correspond to each semi-finalist (via SonyLiv app from season 9). Once the vote period is ended and the results counted and fully verified, the semi-finalist with the highest total of votes is announced as the winner of the semi-final and secures their place in the final. The second vote involves the judges and takes place after the result, in which they vote between the two semi-finalists placed 2nd and 3rd respectively in the public vote, with the participant receiving the majority vote securing their place in the finals.
In season 9, the top 14 contestants performed every weekend and one gets eliminated each week. The bottom two/three contestants from the public vote are brought on the stage and judges have to choose one to safe. Before season 6, each judge vote was revealed but after that one of the judges tell the anonymously tell the final verdict.
There are 2 wild-cards, public's and judges' which are brought upon either in the pre-final or during quarter final (as per season 9).
