Survivor Tamil is a reality show based on the original Swedish Expedition Robinson format developed by Charlie Parsons. Unlike the original Survivor, Survivor Tamil features only celebrity contestants. The contestants (known as "Survivors") live in an 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. [4] [5] The winner of the competition receives a ₹1 crore cash prize for avoiding elimination.
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.
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.
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.
Survivors will gather in the Tribal Panchayat (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.
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.
Survivor Tamil is aired on Zee Tamil. Everyday's episodes contain the main happenings which have been pre - recorded. Every day the makers release an episodes on the OTT app Zee5, the episodes are called Survivor Uncut which features two hours of content for an episode rather than the normal 40 minutes on television.
