Yes after organizing its successful programs in almost every country, now the team of “The Voice”, the International singing reality show is coming to Nepal this year as “The Voice of Nepal”. According to Laxman Paudyal, the former director of Nepal Idol, the team will land soon in Nepal. Paudyal is heading Nepal’s The Voice franchise along with other teammates of Nepal Idol’s first season. Sushil Nepal and Firoj TImilsina are also presented as part of the team and judges aren’t yet finalized.

“The Voice” was originally created on September 17, 2010, in the Netherlands. “The Voice” is an international reality television singing competition franchise. It is based on the reality singing having competitor “The Voice of Holland” originally created by Dutch television producer John de Mol. Since then many other countries adopted this format and begun airing their own versions since 2011. It has become a rival to the Idols franchise, Rising Star, The Four: Battle For Stardom and The X Factor.

Format

The show has format featuring five stages of competition: producers’ auditions, blind auditions, battle rounds, knockouts (since 2012) and live performance shows. The contestants who successfully pass the blind auditions proceed to the battle rounds, where the coaches put two of their own team members against each other to sing the same song together in front of a studio audience. After the vocal face-off, the coach must choose only one to advance. If no specific winner can be identified the competition turns to a game of fate via a coin toss. In some versions, there are steals where opposing coaches can steal a contestant who was voted off by their own coach by pressing their button. As in the blind auditions, if more than one coach presses their button, the contestant chooses which coach they want. Each coach has a set number of steals. In some versions, the winners of the battle rounds proceed to the knockout rounds (dubbed Super-battle round in some versions).

Elimination twists

Blind auditions
Starting from the fifth season of The Voice of Holland, if all the coaches rejected one specific contestant, the losing contestant would leave the stage straight away, without any conversations with the coaches, and the chairs would remain unturned. The format is currently used from the fourth season of The Voice of Bulgaria, the fourth season of Lietuvos Balsas, the sixth season of The Voice of Poland, the sixth series of The Voice UK, the fourth season of The Voice of Armenia, and to the sixth season of La Voz… Mexico. This mechanic was used in the fifth season of the Vocea României, but it was abandoned in later seasons.

Live shows
In some versions, all contestants perform each week and only the public’s vote determines which contestants advance in the competition, a format similar to both Idols and The X Factor. This means that any contestant can be eliminated and no coach is guaranteed a spot in the finals. Along with this elimination method, there is an Instant Save in certain versions, most notably the US version, Israeli version, and Australian Version, where contestants (usually two or three) who are in danger of elimination have to perform again and another vote is conducted to save one of those contestants.

Battles twists
The Cross-battle was introduced as one of the live rounds in the fourth season of The Voice of Holland. In this round, two contestants from two different team compete for each other and the public vote determines who will advance. The Cross-battles returned in the fifth season of the Dutch version but later dropped in the succeeding seasons. The Cross-battles was also used in the fourth season of The Voice Of China, the fifth season of The Voice Brasil, both fifth and sixth seasons of the Vocea României and in the third season of The Voice of Greece. The seventh season of the Dutch version features “non-stop steals”, which means that steals during the battle rounds follow a hot-seat procedure: a coach may replace his or her stolen contestant as many times as he or she likes until the end of the battles. This feature also applies in the seventh season of the Romanian version, fifth season of the Dutch Belgian (Flanders) version, and the fifth season of the Portuguese version.
