## Format changes

Although the main format is the same, this season introduced several notable differences from the American version of Survivor:
* Filming length: This season is filmed over 90 days, compared to the 39-day length of most American seasons.
* Airing format: This season airs daily with a focus on a task or tribal council. The American version largely produces one episode for every 1 day, culminating in an elimination; This season has 100 episodes. The first episode of the week features the Leader selection for the tribes, Reward and Immunity challenges, while the second featured Island of the Dead (Moondram Ulagam), battle and Tribal Council.
* Island of the Dead (Moondram Ulagam): A secluded area where voted out contestants competed against each other in duels to remain in the game. When only three contestants remained in the main game, the winner of the final Island of the Dead duel returned to the game. This twist has been used in other international versions of Survivor, and later appeared in the American version as Redemption Island.

## Survivor Uncut

Daily after the airing of the episode on television, Zee5 releases Survivor Uncut, which provides the unseen events or footage taken place that wasn't aired on television, which has a longer episode running time. Usually the uncut versions are 2 hr long rather than 45 mins on TV.

The competitors must salvage food and shelter and survive the island and each other. The 16 competitors are divided into two tribes of eight, celebrities against ordinary people, and they will reside in two separate islands. The Catan tribe named Kaadargal (காடர்கள்), with the yellow bandana, consists of Vikranth, Viji, Saran, Gayathri, Indraja, Umapathy, Kash and Ram.

After each tribe got back they had to dig around a circle to find a map that would lead them to the good island (which provides food and basic needs) or a flint for fire (which offers them heat and for cooking meals). Once the Vedarkal tribe reached their good island they found a mystery box that had a knife to cut vegetables up for food and rice to cook for their meal. Each tribe needs to select a tribe member to be a tribe leader by voting for them; however, the top 2 highest voted tribe members from each tribe will compete in a challenge in the upcoming days and the winner of the challenge will be selected as the tribes leaders for each tribe.

Srushti and Parvathi were nominated for elimination from Vedarkal (வேடர்கள்) Tribe. Ram and Parvathy got maximum number of votes meanwhile Indraja and Srushti got minimum number of votes. Eventually the host Arjun Sarja revealed a massive twist saying that only the tribe leaders from each tribe's votes will determine the first elimination from both tribes. However, from the Kaadargal (காடர்கள்) tribe leader Gayathri voted Indraja and from the Vedarkal (வேடர்கள்) tribe leader Lakshmi voted Srushti considering both of them the least active and weakest contestants in each tribe.

## Ratings, reception and viewership

Survivor Tamil managed to garner a TRP of 5.02 on its opening and an average of 4.06 for its first week, leaving behind debuts of some of India's popular reality shows such as Bigg Boss, Cooku with Comali, MasterChef India - Tamil and Super Singer. The show generally received positive reviews both from the media and the audience after its launch.

## Controversies
### Safety negligence controversy

On 6 October 2021, Lady Kash made a three-minute statement on YouTube, talking about the production team not giving enough care about the health of the contestants participating. Lady Kash also said the team were making her go through sexual harassment and mental harassment. Kash also said the behaviours of the team members were inhumane and they were lacking on humanity. Kash also said that she exited the show in an injustice way on 28 September 2021 during the final days of the filming of the show. She also stated that three participants in the show were feeling unwell and were tested for COVID-19, and the results came out positive and everyone on set were feeling unwell but without any safety precaution the filming still took place.

### Phone use controversy

Saran Shakthi was accused and proven guilty of using a mobile phone from which he borrowed from a crew member in the island to connect to his girlfriend who is overseas. However, he wasn't disqualified from the show and still competed, which created unfairness towards the co-contestants. He also accused fellow contestant Vijayalakshmi of using a mobile phone too, which is yet to be questioned.
