The viewers of Star One are in for a treat. Come 1 May, they are set to watch a quiz show of a different kind! Heartbeat, produced by Sidhartha Basu's Synergy Communications will air Monday - Thursday at 9:30 pm.

There were speculations in the media that the desi version would be called Heart Attack, but it seems that the makers have decided to stick to the original title. The introduction of the new show will see a fair amount of changes in the current lineup of the channel.

Starting 1 May, Yeh Dil Chahe More will be telecast at 8:30 pm, followed by India Calling at 9:00 with Heartbeat coming in at 9:30 pm. From 17 April, this new schedule will be in place; only at 9:30 pm, the channel will showcase the best of Nach Baliye for two weeks, till Heartbeat takes over.

India Calling: change in time slot!

The Star One quiz show will have to compete with Zee's Saat Phere, Star Plus' Kavyanjali and Sony's new show, Thodi Khushi Thode Ghum

Heartbeat is a one of it's kind show - this is the first time in the country that the outcome of a quiz show will be decided on the pulse rate of the contestants and also there will be no quizmaster to monitor the proceedings, instead there will be a voice that will throw the questions at the contestants. The contestant is going to be confined in a box while he answers the questions thrown at him.They will have all access to the Internet, mobile phones and land lines and the trick is in answering the posers as calmly as possible, as the points will be given on the basis of the most stable pulse rate.

Star India had bought this quiz format from Endemol last year.
