2 Highly recommended - a high dose of laughter, the best medicine, only on Vijay TV. Hutch Kalaka Povathu Yaaru 2 (HKPY2), the second season of the much-watched standup comedy challenge started in July, 2006 presenting a fresh set of comic talent, all set to entertain the masses.
HKPY2 promised to present a whole new range of comedy capers never seen before on Tamil television. That the show has truly appealed to the masses is proved by the channel viewer-ship ratings during the show for the past 3 weeks. The judges; popular comedian Pandiarajan and Sadagopan Ramesh of HKPY2 fame have boosted the morale of the participants and are truly awed with the comic talent that has been identified across the state.
The show’s host, the very vivacious Swarnamalya, is now synonymous with the show. The race to the finals has begun. Ten participants; who have been chosen as comedy kings over the weeks; now come together to perform in the semi-finals of HKPY2 scheduled to air on November 10 & 17, 2006 at 10 p.m.
Two of the semi-finalists are participants who come on the show through the “jump-the-queue” phase especially made available to Hutch subscribers. Some of the acts that viewers would have to watch out for during the semi-finals are the reverse of the famous song ‘Saraswathi Sabatham’.
Also, have you ever wondered how the top actors of the Tamil industry would catch a crocodile?! And a special dose of “kanji with Goundamani” backed by some of the best gags and jokes of college and school life. The grand finale to this comic marathon HKPY2 that has enthralled viewers over the weeks is set for November 24, 2006 with some of their best performances by far.
Another reason to smile After the huge success of HKPY series, Vijay is now all set to launch its best ever in this series; KALAKKA POVATHU CHAMPIONS – PART 2 on December 15, 2006 featuring the crème de la crème of the top comedy kings ever.
Over 26 weeks of non-stop laughter is guaranteed as the champions of HKPY2 join hands with the bandwagon of performers namely Kovai Guna, Robo Shankar, Muthuirulpandi among others from HKPY for some belly-jiggling laughter.
What’s more, the enterprising glam doll Uma Riyaz Khan, is back along with Pandiarajan and Sadagopan Ramesh. This awesome trio along with the comedy kings of part 1 and part 2 are sure to leave the viewers laughing in splits. So tune in every Friday at 10 p.m. – the one-stop solution to drive all the weekday blues away and welcome the weekend with a big smile.
