On the basis of the voting pattern, the final 10 contestants will be selected for the semi-finals, which would comprise two separate live sessions. Each session is expected to be fun-filled with TV actors Shakti Arora and Kanchi Singh joining them as judges. A total of five contestants will be chosen during the semis to enter the final, wherein popular film and television actress Antara Biswas aka Monalisa of Bigg Boss fame would be the judge. The final will be a talent show-cum-QnA session. Following this, the winner will be crowned from among the final three by actresses Divya Khosla Kumar and Anushka Sen.
Based on Likee’s theme of ‘Let You Shine’, Miss Likee 2020 signifies that the platform believes all talented individuals must be given the same opportunity to achieve fame and popularity.
