Antakshari - The Great Challenge

Starts 4th June, Mon-Thu, 7:30 pm on STAR Plus! The GAME: Antakshari is a musical game played in India. The word is derived from two roots: Ant - meaning End Akshar - meaning letter of the alphabet. The idea of the game is to start singing the first two lines of a Hindi film song. The game can be played by two or more people and is particularly popular as a group activity during commutes, bus rides etc. The singer has to sing two complete lines and then she/he may stop at the end of those or following lines. The last Hindi letter of the last word sung is then used by the next singer to sing another song, starting with that letter. It started as well liked family game to pass the time. Now, the same game has created quite a stir on the Indian television...
