Amitabh Bachchan Shares Humorous Math Anecdote on Kaun Banega Crorepati 16
Amitabh Bachchan’s latest episodes of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 are rich in emotions, humor, and personal anecdotes. During a recent episode, the veteran actor had an engaging interaction with contestant Kirti, a banker who surprised him with her quick mathematical prowess. While discussing his own childhood memories and academic challenges, Bachchan revealed a personal story that resonated with many viewers.
The amusing exchange began when Bachchan posed a question valued at Rs 5,000 to Kirti. Her swift answer led to a moment of admiration from the superstar, who remarked, “She works in a bank and so her math has to be good. She gave the reply instantly.”
The conversation took a lighthearted turn when Kirti disclosed that she had never scored above 40 in Math. In a candid moment, Bachchan then shared his own childhood mark, stating, “I scored 42.” He was met with Kirti’s playful response, “You’ve scored more than me,” highlighting a relatable moment of academic misfortune.
This episode is not the first instance where Bachchan has reflected on his educational experiences during KBC. Previously, he had opened up about his struggles with Science while pursuing his BSc degree. “I did BSc without fully understanding what it entailed. I scored decently in Science and thus applied for it, having heard there’s potential in that field,” he shared, illustrating a humorous yet poignant struggle faced by many students.
As the conversation unfolded, Bachchan continued to share his academic challenges, narrating, “I failed the first time I attempted the exam. When I tried again, it was with great difficulty that I managed to score 42 percent.” This moment of honesty resonated with the audience, showcasing the human side of the celebrated actor.
Looking ahead, Bachchan is anticipated to welcome three gold medalists from the upcoming Paris 2024 Paralympics—Avani Lekhara, Navdeep Singh, and Sumit Antil—in future episodes, with the next airing scheduled for October 4.
In his acting career, Bachchan was recently seen in Kalki 2898 AD, where he impressed audiences with his portrayal of Ashwatthama, continuing to solidify his legacy in Indian cinema.
