It’s the KBC 2020 day! The fresh season of the Amitabh Bachchan hosted a game show, Kaun Banega Crorepati is airing on TV from 9 PM onwards and we can’t keep calm. Ever since the show started in 2000, it has created a special place in the viewers’ hearts. The show is in its 12th season now and needless to say, it’s because of the super success. A feat like this is achieved by very fewer shows in India.

But the interesting fact is that ever since Kaun Banega Crorepati started airing on TV, it has been a synonym to Amitabh Bachchan’s name. The way he says, “Deviyo aur sajjno” is not just a way to geet but an emotion. Absolutely no one can take that away from Big B!

This was proved when Amitabh Bachchan got ill during the season 2 of KBC and it had to be abruptly cancelled. In season 3 when the makers decided to bring Shah Rukh Khan as the host, it didn’t work. After a good initial, the TRP of KBC 3 dropped badly and Amitabh Bachchan returned in as a host in the season 4. Since then, Big B has been carrying the show successfully on his shoulders single-handedly.
