MUMBAI: The biggest knowledge-based game show Meelo Evaru koteeswarudu (MEK) announced by MAA TV, the No.1 Telugu GEC, has received excellent response from the Telugu TV audiences.

For the Call for Entry (CFE) conducted between 24th April to May 1st to select the contestants, more than 1 million viewers sent SMSs, expressing their interest to participate in the game show

Of the 1 million plus responses, about 1500 were short-listed through randomization process by a 3rd party agency with a fool-proof process audit by E&Y audit firm.

With auditions in Vijayawada, Tirupathi and Hyderabad, about 100 participants were selected to play the game with Nagarjuna

In the 6 episodes that were shot so far, 9 contestants took the hot seat and a few of them are truly heart touching stories.

The telecast of the game show will commence on 9th June (Monday). It will be at 9.00 PM to 10.30 PM from Monday to Thursday (4 days a week)

Every contestant's back-end story has been recorded and addressed in the show.. It will be a life changer for most of the contestants who make it to the hot seat.

The prize money is from Rs. 1,000 to Rs. 1 Crore and the rules are the same like the KBC. Those who answer all the 15 questions correctly will get Rs. 1 Crore prize

The International Format tasted success worldwide in more than 150 countries, and 7 languages in India including Hindi
