Amitabh Bachchan Hosts KBC 16 Contestant's Emotional Journey with Rs 1 Crore Question
Amitabh Bachchan Welcomes Nareshi Meena to KBC 16
In the latest episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, 27-year-old contestant Nareshi Meena became the first participant to face the Rs 1 crore question. The episode took an intriguing turn when Nareshi, who is currently undergoing treatment for a brain tumour, faced this life-changing question.
The Rs 1 Crore Question
Unable to answer, she made the heart-wrenching decision to quit the show, taking home a prize of Rs 50 lakh. Amitabh Bachchan posed the challenging question:
- Whom did Leela Row Dayal beat to become the first Indian woman to win a singles match at the Wimbledon Tennis Championship?
With options:
- A. Lottie Dod
- B. Gladys Southwell
- C. May Sutton
- D. Kitty Godfree
The correct answer was Gladys Southwell. Earlier, in a promo video, Nareshi bravely spoke of her battle with the brain tumour, saying, “Mujhe brain tumour hua sir, Khud ko yahi batati hu ki koi tension nahi hai tujhe koi bimari nahi hai” (I am suffering from a brain tumour, but I keep telling myself that there’s no need to worry; you don’t have any illness).
Amitabh Bachchan encouraged her, stating, “Aapne ye thaan liya hai ki ye dhanrashi yahan se jeet kar jaaungi toh iska ilaaj ho sakta hai” (You have decided that if you win this prize money, your treatment can be done).
Airing Details
KBC 16 airs on Sony TV and also live streams on SonyLIV. This emotional episode has captured the hearts of many, showing not only Nareshi’s determination but also the supportive environment created by Amitabh Bachchan.
