Did You Know? Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 2 Was Abruptly Ended & The Reason Was Amitabh Bachchan

Kaun Banega Crorepati is synonymous with Amitabh Bachchan. There was a time in Indian television when Amitabh single-handedly defined the era of reality shows. To date, the connection of Big B and viewers is intact. In today’s piece, we’ll be taking a look at a lesser-known fact about the abruptly ended season 2.

For those who aren’t aware, the show started in 2000. With a unique concept catering to the Indian audience, the show was a massive hit and such success led way for the second season. Surprisingly, it took 4 years for the makers to come up with the second season.

In 2005, Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 2 came out. Unfortunately, it witnessed a blunder and the show was ended abruptly. As planned, the show had 85 episodes scheduled. But it was Amitabh Bachchan’s deteriorating health that left the makers with no choice but to end the season. Big B had shot for 61 episodes, thus the show ended 24 episodes earlier.
