Contestant Chander Prakash became the first crorepati in season 16 of the quiz program Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC). Sony Entertainment Television took to Instagram on Wednesday to share recordings of KBC presenter Amitabh Bachchan hailing Chander.
The 22-year-old is a UPSC candidate from Jammu and Kashmir, according to the Times of India. Chander has stated on the show that he has faced several health challenges throughout his life. His gut was blocked at birth. He has endured seven operations thus far. However, he continues to have digestive troubles and has been advised by physicians to undergo his ninth operation.
In the clip, Amitabh stood in front of the audience and screamed, ” ₹1 crore”. The people cheered and clapped for Chander. Amitabh then said, “Gale lagjaiyyye aap humare (let’s hug)” and hugged him. The video was posted with the caption, “Iss season ke pehle Crorepati, Chander Parkash ko hum sab ki ore se hardik shubhkaamnaye (This season’s first crorepati, best wishes to Chander Parkash from us)!”
What was the ₹1 Crore Question?
Let us take a look at the ₹1 crore question which made Chander first crorepati of KBC 16. The question was–The largest city in which country is not its capital but a port with an Arabic name that means ‘abode of peace’? The options were: A) Somalia, B) Oman, C) Tanzania and D) Brunei. After using the ‘Double Dip’ lifeline, Chander answered Tanzania which was the correct answer.
What was the ₹7 Crore Question?
The host then asked Chander the ₹7 crore question. It was–Who was the first recorded child born to English parents in North America in 1587? Since Chander didn’t know the answer and had exhausted his lifelines, he quit the show. When Amitabh asked Chander to guess, he chose option A) Virginia Dare, which was the correct answer.
