I also agree with sunita on this.First of all if the players press the buzzer beforehand,they will be able to guess the song once the words appear.I don't think it is possible to stop the words as soon as the buzzer is pressed.
And I don't think we shld underestimate these kids,,they are very sharp and have a really good presence of mind.So if they realise that the song is wrong,they can and will change it immediately on seeing all 4 words.More importantly Juhi's expression is enough for them.Her expression will tell them that their song is wrong and they would,therefore change it.If you observe closely all kids(esp noticed Navin doing this) look continuously at Juhi's face while singing a song!!
And last but not the least,let us take a situation where there are 2 teams A and B.Let us say,A is leading B by 10 points or more in the beginning of round 'chhuk chhuk ruk ruk'.A team's motive is to continue to maintain its 10 points lead at the end of the round/increase its lead.....what would you do if u were a part of team A?I'll tell u wht I'd do.I'll press the buzzer for every clip as soon as the first word is shown.If i get it right,i get + 20.If not ,I only lose 10 marks.If the oppostion team were to get the answer right,they would get +20 for every right answer and make up the 10 marks lead in 1 answer.so my best bet is to deny them that opportunity.If i pressed the buzzer for all 6 answers,and let us say ..... if i get 2 out of 6 answers right(which any person would definitely get),i would still lose 40 marks (4*10) and gain 40 marks(2*20).So bingo.. at the end of the round by doing almost nothing except depriving my opponent of a chance i get to maintain my lead!
This kind of thing is possible in many other rounds too(esp fulll and final),but in this case since the words can't be stopped ,the team which presses the buzzer stands an almost 90% chance of getting the answer right. This kind of strategy can be played in full and final if a team has a minimum lead(around 70 marks)

Anu loved your analysis ...The scenario you have give is so real and even i might have done the same in the situation😳😳...looks like you have a job of the antakshri research team😉

and sorry,if this sounded like an essay..i have a tendency to write long posts!!!

i loved reading the essay and writing such posts really increases the discussions👏 . This way we also get to understand the different strategies and especially when it comes from a cost accountant w ealso getto see numbers play😉

Thanx priya for ur compliments.It is really nice to discuss things with ppl like u who are broadminded and can understand/accept another person's point of view without taking it as a personal affront.I see lots of ppl nowadays who think that if anyone disagrees with them , then it is a personal battle or something and they really worked up abt it.
In such a world it is nice to find level headed and logical ppl like u and sunita.looking fwd to many more healthy discussions. 😊😊

i think it is rigth to not let them press the buzzer before all the 4 word dont stop as it is said that if they press the buzzer before then may be the words dont stop and they get it and sing so anyone who is behind will press the buzzer and take a change so it is fair that they should not press the buzzer before all the 4 words stop
