A Grand Milestone: KBC's 25-Year Celebration Begins

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan has begun filming the 17th season of 'Kaun Banega Crorepati', a staple on Indian television for over two decades. The season promises not just intriguing questions and new contestants but also surprises to mark the show's 25-year legacy.

This year, KBC will premiere on August 11, airing on Sony Entertainment Television and streaming on SonyLIV. It also introduces a campaign, #JahanAkalHaiWahaanAkadHai, which underscores the pride in intellect, celebrating not just knowledge but the confidence it fosters.

Bachchan, KBC's iconic host since 2000, except in 2003, shared his anticipatory thoughts on his blog as he took to the set. Despite his long association, he expressed humility and excitement, acknowledging the role of the audience and contestants in the show's enduring success.
