Big B and Shah Rukh have refused to host the show
It had changed Amitabh Bachchan’s life forever, but today the show has no takers. Yes, we are talking about “Kaun Banega Crorepati”.
The show gave a new lease of life to Big B’s career several years ago. It had marked his hugely successful comeback after a major slump in his career. Bachchan’s popularity only soared thereafter.
Today, it’s the show which needs rescuing.
Apparently, producer Siddharth Basu is running from door to door to find some takers as he readies for the fourth season of the game show. Both Shah Rukh Khan and Big B have bluntly refused to host the show. Even leading channels like Sony, Star, Zee and Colors have said that they have enough on their hands and are not willing to air the show.
Will this mark an end to KBC, which was at one point of time the biggest attraction on Star Plus?
The relationship between KBC and Bachchan soured when Big B left the show due to some illness. He could not shoot the remaining episodes and later SRK was roped in. Though, Bachchan settled the matter, he apparently made up his mind never to work on this show again.
