The third season of the Indian Tamil-language reality singing television series Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Seniors premiered on Zee Tamil on 18 December 2022.[1] The four main judges of this show are Srinivas, Karthik, Vijay Prakash and Remya Nambeesan.[2] Remya Nambeesan is the fourth new judge who has joined Sa Re Ga Ma Pa from season 3.[3]Archana Chandhoke has returned as the host for the third time.[4] This show has been a fame to have many talented contestants from many diverse backgrounds including those with disability (including visual impairment, albinism in humans).

Summary

[edit]

The show started with 23 contestants after the mega-blind audition round. There will be several rounds of performances to shortlist the top contestants for the finale. On each round of the show, four judges and jury members from various musical backgrounds weigh in with their points to judge every performance. The four judges rate the performances on a scale of 10 and the jury members on a scale of 5. The performance is recognized as golden if all the judges decide to rate a contestant's effort with 10 points. For a golden performance, the judges sing "Kannamaniye <name> Kalakipotta Nee / Sokkavaikkum Paatai Paadi Asathipotta Nee / Aatam Poordu (double clap) / Vetta Poordu (double clap) / Aatam Poordu Vetta Poordu Santhoshame Sa Re Ga Ma Pa / Ithu Golden Performance" and the contestant would receive a golden shower on the stage. For the first time, contestants Akshaya and Sharath were given a diamond performance during the "Kaadhale Kaadhali" (love songs) round for their rendition of "Vaaji Vaaji" song from the film Sivaji: The Boss.

If a contestant does not achieve 10/10, the total points are computed by accumulating the scores from the jury members and the judges. Each juror's score must be a whole number, and the judges' score can be in increments of 0.5. Srinivas' score would be a "secret" score, meaning that this score would not be revealed (unless the performance was a golden performance). It would still be counted when adding up the total score. At the end of every week, awards would be given to several performances, such as the week's best performance. Moreover, participants who received the lowest scores will move into the danger zone and, depending on their marks, will either be saved or eliminated. The first set of elimination led to three participants leaving the competition. From round 12 , it was announced that there would be no elimination and there would only be selection to the top five finalists.
