Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 16: Amitabh Bachchan’s Banter With Contestant Is Too Good To Miss

Amitabh Bachchan is set to host the latest season of Kaun Banega Crorepati. The 16th edition of the quiz show will premiere on August 12. Now, the makers have dropped a promo featuring the legendary actor. The hilarious video shows a comparison draw between the Cricket World Cup and an arranged marriage by a contestant. Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 16: Amitabh Bachchan Banter With Contestant Is Too Good To MissAs the contestant continues to explain the reasons behind the LOL claim, he says, “In arranged marriages, there is no certainty until the final meeting. Both the girl’s and boy’s sides likely can reject the proposals based on their preferences.” Even until the semi-final which he compares to the stage right before the wedding, the contestant claimed that there are chances for the talks about the wedding to end.

Amitabh Bachchan started shooting for Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 in April. In another promo released by the makers, the host can be seen reciting a poem, “Zindagi ke har mod par, rishto ke har chod par. Kabhi manyataaon ki aarh mein, kabhi log laaj ki deke duhaai. Puchegi jo sawaal zindagi, jawab to dena pdega. [At every turn in life, at every crossroad in relationships. Sometimes in the guise of traditions, sometimes amidst people’s shame. Whatever questions life asks, you will have to answer.]”

The caption attached to the promo read, “Zindagi hai, har mod par sawaal poochegi, jawaab toh dena hoga! [Life will ask questions at every turn, and you will have to answer!]”

ICYDW, Kaun Banega Crorepati will air from Monday to Friday at 9 PM on Sony Entertainment Television. The first season of the quiz-based reality show premiered in 2000 with Amitabh Bachchan as the host. The actor, since then, has been at its helm, except for the third season in 2006. The particular season was hosted by Shah Rukh Khan.
