Happy Hour: Celebrating Friendships With ZEE TV's Yaaron Ki Baraat
https://www.indiblogger.in/happyhours.php?permalink=zee_celebrating_friendships/
For the first time on Indian television, ZEE TV brings you a fun-filled chat show Vivo Smartphone presents Yaaron Ki Baraat co-powered by Amazon.in and Brooke Bond Red Label that will put celebrity friendships to test through a series of fun challenges and tasks. Tune in to ZEE TV at 8 PM on 8th October.
In all probability, yes, because amazon is one of the co-sponsors of the TV programme.
I like this contest topic but am not sure if I have any selfies with my friends. Will have to search out or organize an urgent long-lost-buddies meeting tomorrow :P
Interesting topic.... :) it would be fun to look at and collate old pics with friends.... :)
BTW, the link to be added in the post lands at an error.... says, "Oops, we couldn’t find this page." May be the link needs to be updated? Or is it just for me?
@Divya, this is the link to be included in the blog post - http://www.ozee.com/shows/yaaron-ki-baraat
Please check if this link is opening up at your end.
That link doesn't open. I am at Morrisville network and it says it is not available for your region. But anyways I added that link. lets see
@Renie : One important questin. should it necessarily be about one specific friend or it can be a group of 3-4 friends? It'll be bad if i am gonna leave out other names in my list :)
I think that's not gonna work. They'll reject my post right away if I don't add real pictures. Lets see. :(
You can find out some group pictures.. Don't tell me you don't have any pic with your friends?
Pardon my ignorance, but there isn't any submission link on the page. Happy Hours posts don't need to be submitted separately?
No, Varsha, right now, you won't see any submission link, the submit button is invisible but exactly at 6 PM (when this particular Happy hour starts), you will see the SUBMIT button right below the time ticker (and to the right of the "Vouchers left" tab.
Since there are only 50 vouchers in total, so you will have to be fast in submitting or else you will miss the bus. Therefore I will suggest you to be online from 5:55 pm onwards and keep the happy hours page open.
As soon as you see the submit button, click it. You will be taken to a new page where you will be asked to enter the url of your blogpost, the title of the post, a short description of it and tags. Enter them quickly and press the submit button. If your post is successfully submitted, you will get a message saying "your post will show up on your Indivine list once it gets moderated".
Now to know the rank of your submission (at what position did you submit your post), at once head to indistatus page - first to the dashboard page and then on the right side column, you will see Indistatus tab.
Once you are on the Indistatus page, scroll down to the particular Happy Hours tab. In the "Entries" column, right now we see two zeroes for "Total" and "Mine" (since the submissions haven't started yet). Once you have submitted your entry at 6 pm, you will see "1" written under "Mine" and a certain number under "Total" (i.e. the total number of entries at that point). That number will be your submission rank (it may not be exact because many other bloggers too would be submitting their entires simultaneously, but it will give you an approximate rank. If you succeed in submitting your entry within 50, you will win a voucher, provided your post meets all the criteria. Good luck 
Appreciate your time and patience Amit. May be you should keep this write up saved for future queries for easy copy paste.
Thank you Nandhini, I had actually thought about doing that on earlier occasions too but somehow always forgot where I kept them saved, which folder and in which drive. For that matter, I have answered this question several times (how to submit for the Happy hour and how to find out the submission rank) 
but believe me, I do not mind typing such essays and answering them again . But yes, Tanishq had prepared a wonderful FAQ list for the Happy Hour queries. If only that particular thread could be made sticky, I would not have to type this much every time 
and the newbies would not face that much trouble in finding answers to their doubts.
I second that. How come a contest sponsored by ZEE can take place without any participation from RioZEE?
Well, since my Indiranks are at rock-bottom, it will take me multiple lenders, may be more that what Vijay Mallya had
Haha even if I give you some then we both would be rejected :P Sorry mate :P
Voucher payout should be higher if there's a rank limitation. It's not easy to maintain 70+ either.
Dude, they multiplied voucher payout by 5 times !!
The number of entries is reduced, but it also demands quality. Between 40-70 level blogs are chucked out and that's huge. But more people in level 70 and above would love to participate so higher in quality. Not that I dont appreciate it.
@Amit pattnaik : Such a great detailed response for happy hour faq's.. good job man
Thank you Karthik
Hey..just scraped through in the ranking, but HH is meant to make everyone happy not on the basis of some names such as MOZ and Alexa.. but 50 vouchers way toooo less...i am not Usain Bolt neither is my wifi..
this is better than Indione, where only the same ppl get selected over and over again, though others have good ranks. now everyone having a fair chance with a good ranking
@Rio..thanks..first time breached that magical numbers, the two guys probably rescued me(Moz and Alexa):)
@yes Karthik..never got the approval from indione..now i no longer apply:)
Someone plz tell me, what shall I do if I dont have a pic or two of my friends and me
yaar plz anaswer my query someone
May be you can go and click one right now :)
hehehe.. I wish I could.. I have to fly to the US or somewhere else to get one...
They don't have to be real friends...Zee TV wouldn't know for sure
true.. Thanks NSV
Only 50 Vouchers. There's gonna be a mad rush!!!
Indi Rank :) ... Every new happy hour is coming up with a new criteria ...Firstly your own URL , then 70+ Indirank .... Next would be .. Blogger whose net worth is more than 1 crore :) ...
Yes it signifies RioZee....I have not wrote from 3 weeks on my blog & my Rank dipped from 74 to 70 , same with my alexa ranking. So good Indirank mean your blog is active & have some quality posts with good Moz rank including other factors. If you know google algo it ranks blogs with quality content & keywords on higher page rank. Sorry mate I just got saved by my last post which is still attracting a lot of traffic, even I have not written from last few weeks. Better luck next time. We all can work on our IndiRank.
PS : The topic is awesome
My rank was 76 for couple of months , then shifted to 73...this month below 70
Bad timing ? Bad luck?
I have indirank of 72. I wanted to contribute in this HH. But i dont have pics with friends bevause my laptop has been recently attacked by CERBER3 ransomware. And i have formatted all the data. And even if I manage to grt those from somewhere, i wont be able to contribute. Because Submission guidelines says that posts should remain active for 1 yr. And yesterday, I got to know that my current hosting provider MyWapBlog is closing their service from 15th Nov. I have another blog on Blogspot, if I export all my data from mywapblog to my existed blog on Blogger and park my sane domain on blogger. Can I participate? Or if i do so, can my Indiblogger account will be affected. I don't want to violate any policy of Indiblogger. Please someine help me.
Try finding the pics of your friends on facebook. I think you guys had probably shared some pictures and selfies of you two together on there. Recently, I have migrated my blog from a different hosting service to hostgator, and it only took a day to do it. Your permalinks won't change so there shouldn't be a problem. I hope this help :)
On a sidenote, how did you manage the CERBER3 Attack? Coz even I had the same issue
