The iconic quiz-based reality show Kaun Banega Crorepati has marked a remarkable milestone by completing 25 years of transforming dreams into reality and creating life-changing moments. To celebrate the occasion, the makers organised a grand celebration in its latest episode.
Amitabh Bachchan hosted KBC completes 25 years
During the episode, a heartfelt video was played for the show’s legendary host, Amitabh Bachchan, featuring congratulatory messages from fans. One audience member passionately shared, “KBC is like a festival, a magical experience, and Big B is the magician. People cannot imagine KBC without you. This show should continue for another 25 or even 50 years, with you being an integral part of this journey.”
Moved by the outpouring of love and blessings, an emotional Amitabh Bachchan responded, “Thank you very much, Deviji. You have said such kind and wonderful things. I have never looked at this show as just work. Every contestant who steps onto this platform, and every audience member present, feels like a guest in my home. Just as we welcome guests with warmth and hospitality at home, I strive to extend the same courtesy here. To me, you all truly feel like family.”
He continued, “Life brings its share of ups and downs, and when I see contestants performing well, it fills me with immense joy. But when they struggle or lose, it deeply pains me. I have often said that the pain contestants feel is something I experience as well. Witnessing someone in distress is never easy."
He further added, "This game holds the power to transform lives in a single moment with just one correct answer. People come here carrying countless hopes and dreams, and being a part of those moments as their dreams unfold is a source of inspiration for me. I hope the love and affection from all of you continues to grow stronger forever.”
Adding a touch of humour, Big B said with a smile, “You’re talking about 25 or 50 more years. Are you aware of my age? I might not even be around by then. But I sincerely pray that this show continues to live on forever.”
Kaun Banega Crorepati airs Monday to Friday on Sony Entertainment Television.
