KBC 16: Amitabh Bachchan once again charmed audiences during a recent episode of 'Kaun Banega Crorepati 16'. The veteran actor, who has been hosting the popular quiz show for several years, shared a light-hearted moment with contestant Trishul Singh Choudhary, which included an anecdote about his grandchildren’s reaction to his role in the film 'Kalki 2898 AD'. 

KBC's rule changed for a contestant for the first time

In the September 16 episode, Amitabh welcomed Trishul, a 30-year-old software engineer, to the hot seat. Trishul, who has been facing personal challenges with the support of his family, appeared slightly nervous despite his earlier confidence. Sensing the contestant’s discomfort, Amitabh reassured him with a warm hug and helped him feel at ease. He even decided to tweak some of the gameplay rules to make Trishul more comfortable.

During their chat, Trishul asked Amitabh whether he had ever tried sitting on a bean bag. The actor humorously replied that while they may be comfortable, bean bags are not really suited for older individuals like him. Trishul quickly complimented the superstar, quipping, “But you’re only 40 or 45 years old.” Amitabh responded to the playful comment with a smile.
