Amitabh Bachchan on the journey of Kaun Banega Crorepati

Kaun Banega Crorepati started when there were no smartphones nor was there social media. Twenty-one years later, in its 13th Season, KBC is timeless.

Sharing his thoughts, megastar and host Amitabh Bachchan says, “It feels a bit strange and immodest to say this but I don’t usually get an opportunity to interact with the audience at a personal level leaving aside a few rare moments. Here was a moment when I was directly able to speak with the contestant, sitting face to face with each other. I believe that if I have invited someone on the hotseat, it’s like inviting somebody to my home.”

Big B continues, “KBC is one such show where the aam admi becomes khaas. It’s about gyaan and of course dhan. This show has been one of the most generous shows in the history of Indian Television. But this show, along with the monies, gives sammaan as well. Not everybody comes for the money… so many come for respect. This season will see the Friday celebration in the form of

Shaandaar Shukravaar where celebrity guests, from all walks of life, will play the game for a social cause.
