Jodi porutham, yet another game show for married couple. A compatibility test or a sheer outburst of emotions on screen! Sun TV has yet again come up with an age old concept to earn the coveted T.R.P's. With mega TV, Jaya TV also having the same kind of programs (reality shows to test compatibility between married couples), Jodi Porutham wins for the most obvious reasons. The sun TV banner and the gifts promised!

After placing the ballot boxes in various parts of TamilNadu and collecting filled in applications from the interested couples, ten couples are selected from a sector and are invited to the studio to participate in a game show, what the producers call as testing compatibility. Jodi Porutham, the reality show has four rounds. The first round is more like a screener round. A buzzer round with simple questions pertaining to programmes of sun TV. Internal branding I suppose. After this four couples who answer right are selected to play the next round.

Next round is the Mouna Mozhi round and after which follows the final question round (rapid fire) round. These two are perhaps the rounds which will help in really bringing out the understanding and compatibility shared by the couples. Rapid fire round have usual questions like favorite movies, food, likes and dislikes.

The last round is perhaps one round which does not have any significance to the theme of the show. Figure out the exact price of the item displayed. This reality game show, most of the contestants really behave in strange way. Displaying love in the most public way, with discomfort in their eyes is the greatest minus point.

The show is anchored by Ananda Kannan of Sun music fame and another female anchor Anisha. The lady host hardly does anything other than wearing a wide smile throughout the show and giving of the scores. Anandha Kannan is a well known anchor but there are few ridiculous comments he makes during the course of the show.

Jodi porutham is definitely a hit because of the sole reason of the prize. Offering a diamond set worth around a lakh for the winners and a kitchen set with a lot of home appliances for the runners and lot of other goodies for the participants.
