Mumbai, Sept 28 (FN Bureau) Hosted by the legendary Amitabh Bachchan, Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 on Sony Entertainment Television continues to unite families with its engaging gameplay, heartwarming stories, and inspiring personalities. An upcoming episode will feature Kishor Aher from Bid, Maharashtra, a dedicated Librarian preparing for a competitive exam, who will take the hot seat, sharing his dream of establishing an educational institute in his village to honor his grandfather.
In a light-hearted exchange about watching movies on the big screen, Big B remarked, “It often happens that when I go to watch a film, I read the title beforehand, but if someone asks me a month later which movie I watched, I forget the name. I mention this because nowadays, there is an overwhelming abundance of films. Whether on mobile or in theatres, there are countless options everywhere.” Kishor shared, “We usually watch movies on our mobile devices”, to which Amitabh replied, “I find it difficult to watch on such a small screen; it feels a bit strange.
We’ve worked hard to enjoy films on the big screen, – “Hum bade parde ke liye bane hai”, and there’s something truly special about watching a film in the theatres.” He also recalled the recent re-release of the iconic film Sholay by the Film Heritage Foundation, noting the long lines at the theatre, and the vibrant energy of the audience, clearly enjoying the film, even now; he also added, “Bade parde ka asar kuch aur hai” Kishor then shared that his father is a huge fan of Sholay and would get CDs of the movie, watching it on repeat. And, at the special request of fans, Bachchan delighted everyone by reciting his famous line from the film, “Tumhara naam kya hai, Basanti?”
