Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan

"India Challenger Week" is an exciting new feature on the knowledge-based game show Kaun Banega Crorepati (Season 16) on Sony Entertainment Television. Two players will advance to this week's "Jaldi 5 Buzzer Round" from the 10 who competed in the Fastest Finger First (FFF) round. After determining the buzzer challenge winner, the game will advance to the money tree at question six. Priyanka, a contender from Delhi, is one of the most impressive participants in India Challenger Week. Her remarkable path from academia to India's most famous game show exemplifies the power of knowledge and drive to unlock extraordinary chances.

Priyanka's unique interview questions for Amitabh Bachchan

"Your house is so big; how do you find the remote if it gets lost?" was the first of several clever and frank questions that Priyanka posed to Amitabh Bachchan during her interview, adding an unexpected and enjoyable twist to the game.

"I directly go to the set-top box and control it from there!" Mr. Bachchan, known for his quick wit, made this statement.

As the grilling progressed, Priyanka persisted in asking questions that any middle-class family could relate to, transforming the serious quiz show into a hilarious farce. "In middle-class families, when the remote gets lost, it often leads to a fight at home. Does that happen in your house too?" Priyanka enquired.

The actor Amitabh Bachchan shot back, "No, madam, that doesn’t happen in our house. There are two cushions on the sofa, and the remote is usually hidden under them. We just have to find it there."

"When I leave the office for home, my mom often asks me to pick up coriander or something else on the way," Priyanka continued, moving on to the next topic. "Does Jaya Ma'am ever ask you to bring anything?"

"Of course, she does," Amitabh Bachchan said in response. Then she says, "Bring yourself home!"

Amitabh Bachchan's humorous take on ATM visits and cash handling

Finally, Priyanka wanted to know if Big B had ever checked their balance at an ATM after withdrawing cash. "I neither keep cash with me nor go to the ATM because I don’t understand how to use it," he responded with a laugh, adding, "But Jaya ji does have cash. I ask her for money. Jaya Ji loves garlands, so when kids on the roadside sell them, I buy one and sometimes give it to Jaya Ji or leave it in the car because I like their fragrance."

Kaun Banega Crorepati has won the hearts of millions of viewers with its charming blend of comedy and emotional moments, brought to life by Priyanka's fun questions and Mr. Bachchan's clever replies.

Fun and excitement abound throughout India Challenger Week on Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 16 also available to stream on SonyLIV (OTTplay Premium).
