Aamir Khan will be the first guest at Amitabh Bachchan’s Kaun Banega Crorepati
Amitabh Bachchan announced the return of his popular game show Kaun Banega Crorepati also known as KBC earlier this week. The new session will return for its 14th season. According to a new report, Aamir Khan will appear in the first episode of the show. The actor is preparing for the release of his next film, Lal Singh Chaddha, in which he co-stars with Kareena Kapoor.
Aamir Khan has been working hard to promote Lal Singh Chaddha. The film is the official Hindi remake of Robert Zemeckis’ Oscar-winning 1994 film Forrest Gump, which starred Hollywood star Tom Hanks in the titular role. Laal Singh Chaddha is said to depict some of India’s historic events through the eyes of Aamir’s Lal Singh. The film will be released in theatres on August 11.
According to reports, in the first episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 14, real-life heroes will appear on the show to participate in the game. The report said, “Aamir Khan will also join the team to introduce a set of guests. He will also be seen talking about his film Laal Singh Chadha in the episode.”
The new season of KBC will premiere on Sony TV, with a new prize money slot of 75 lakh added. The decision was made to commemorate India’s 75th year of independence. The premiere date for KBC 14 has yet to be announced. Except for the third season in 2007, which was hosted by actor Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh has hosted Kaun Banega Crorepati since its inception in 2000.
Meanwhile, Amitabh has a number of projects in the works. He will appear alongside Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Mouni Roy, and Nagarjuna in Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra.
