Premiere on “Beat the Star”: Rebecca Mir and Nilam Farooq dueled late into the night – a head-to-head race that ended in a 16th decision game for the first time.
The exchange of blows that moderator Rebecca Mir and actress Nilam Farooq had on Saturday evening on “Beat the Star” could not have been any closer.

15 games, six hours: Lena-Meyer Landrut won against Lena Gercke
The two duelled until late at night and in the end even created a novelty on the show: because it was actually 60:60 after 15 games, a 16th decision game had to be played for the first time in “Schlag den Star” to win yesterday’s winner to be determined in the evening.
16. Deciding game: “hole board”
As an extra task, moderator Elton finally presented the game “Lochbrett” to the two – at this point Mir and Farooq were already at the end of their nerves: “I didn’t know that it was like that if you participated here,” says the actress. “Did your legs tremble like that?” Me wants to know from her.
Rebecca Mir and Nilam Farooq – Who has the steady hand?
In “Lochbrett” the two had to use two ropes to carry a ball up a board to the finish. If the ball falls into one of the numerous holes on the way there, you have to start all over again. It became apparent early on that Farooq would be able to keep a calmer hand until the end – and so she was able to cheer at just after two in the morning and receive the prize money of 100,000 euros.
