The contestants who have been chosen for fastest finger round have been put up in a hotel to complete their quarantine period before entering the sets of ‘KBC12’. The number of contestants for ‘fastest finger first’ has also been reduced to 8 as the seats need to be at a distance from each other keeping in mind the social-distancing norm.

The new season of ‘KBC’ emphasizes on turning the ‘setbacks’ into ‘comebacks’. The promo of the show featured a businessman, who suffered a big loss but is determined to start everything from the scratch with a winning amount of Rs 1,000.
The lifeline ‘Audience Poll’ will be replaced by ‘Video-a-friend’. Also, starting from registrations to auditions, everything in the show has been conducted online this time.
The host of the show Amitabh Bachchan started shooting from September 7, 2020. Recently, Sony TV shared a video revealing how ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati 12’ has adapted to the changes owing to the COVID-19 pandemic.
