On that day, the lowest scorer is eliminated. [6]

Production

The title of the series was taken from Aamir Khan's 2007 film Taare Zameen Par after getting rights from them. [10]

In conversation with The Times of India, Sugandha said, "I share a strong connection with kids and really enjoy being around them. I decided to be part of the show because of its unique concept. I thoroughly enjoy hosting as much as I love acting and over the years, I have developed a certain penchant for hosting television shows. I am happy to be a part of a prestigious show and looking forward to witnessing some of the finest performances in this show by a set of equally dynamic kids.” [11]
