Win Cash Prizes Worth Rs 2 Crore With Airtel TV ‘Free Hit’ IPL Trivia Game

Airtel TV Free Hit

Earlier last month, Reliance Jio launched a new IPL-based experience called Jio Cricket Play Along which offered users cash prizes for answering cricket-related questions. In a bid to keep up with the competition, Bharti Airtel has now rolled out a similar interactive experience called Airtel TV Free Hit.

Airtel TV Free Hit is an in-app quiz based game where users will have the chance to win cash prizes up to Rs. 2 crores for answering questions related to the ongoing IPL season. The new experience has been developed in partnership with Times Internet’s Brain Baazi.

The Airtel TV Free Hit experience will be available to users in two different versions – Airtel TV Free Hit Live, which users can play every day before the T20 match at 7:30 pm, and a non-live version which can be played alongside the T20 telecast.

In order to participate in the experience, users will have to update to the latest version of the Airtel TV app and register for the experience. As of now, Airtel TV Free Hit is only available on the Android version of the app and the company has released no information regarding its release on the iOS version.

Talking about the new experience, Gautam Sinha, CEO Times Internet, was quoted saying:

“We are very happy to partner with Airtel and extend BrainBaazi’s platform to Airtel’s live cricket gaming show. It’s a testament to what we have built with BrainBaazi, a live mobile video platform that can engage with millions of people at the same time.”

Once logged in and registered, users will have to jump into the app at 7:30 pm every day before the live match begins, and answer 11 questions about the ongoing tournament. Those who answer all questions correctly will share the prize pool for the day. The game also offers you ‘lives’ to help evade elimination, in case you get an answer wrong. If you run out of lives, you can get more by watching an ongoing match till the end and utilizing the extra life on the next game.

The non-live version of the game, which starts at the beginning of every T20 match has been specifically designed for cricket lovers who like to predict the game’s outcome. Users will have to analyze the game as it proceeds and predict the final results to win an instant cash prize. For each correct guess, users will be awarded runs and they’ll have to reach a predefined target which will be set at the beginning of the game.

It’s not unlike Hotstar’s prediction game inside the IPL live feed, and goes to show that Indian telecom operators and OTT service providers are clearly looking to extend engagement through innovative games around the hot IPL season.
