Greetings, hello and thank you!
This is Amitabh Bachchan, and I'm thrilled to welcome you and begin
an exciting, informative, and spectacular Kaun Banega Crorepati!
Congratulations and thank you to all of you.
[audience applauding]
Ladies and gentlemen, with the divine blessings
of the nine goddesses on this auspicious occasion of Navaratri,
we are set to begin today's game with Ms. Neha.
Please welcome her. Welcome, Ms. Neha.
[audience applauding and cheering]
Don't do this. This way.
[audience applauding]
- Thank you so much, sir. - All right!
[audience applauding]
All right!
Thank you once again. Thanks a lot. Have a seat.
[audience applauding and cheering]
Ladies and gentlemen,
Ms. Neha is seated across from me.
The hooter went off when it was Neha's turn.
The game had ended, which is why we couldn't proceed with the game.
But I will start the game with you today.
All right, Ms. Neha. What have you been up to these days?
Sir, I am a student.
I've completed my master's degree.
But I am an aspiring soldier.
I am preparing for CDS and AFCAT.
- Do you want to be a soldier? - Yes, sir.
Lovely!
Now I get it.
When she got here after winning the Fastest Finger First round,
I noticed some people dancing and others touching the seat.
However, she came over and gave me a salute.
[audience applauding]
You look good. Am I right?
[audience] Yes!
- But not as good as you, sir. - Huh?
I am wearing this inspired by you. I knew you'd wear a kurta and pants.
At least 1% of people should look at me.
- 99% will look at you. - That is not true.
Everyone is looking at you.
[laughing]
All right, Ms. Neha.
Who did you bring here as your companion?
Sir, my dad is here.
Greetings, sir.
Congratulations and welcome to our show.
Mr. Vinod Kumar, you must be proud,
because your daughter wants to be in the army.
Yes, I am proud of her.
- Was there anyone from your family who was in the army? - No, no one.
- Is she the first person? - Yes.
Congratulations!
- Congratulations to you. All right! - Thank you, sir.
All right! Ms. Neha!
You are familiar with the rules of the game.
- Yes. - Here are the three lifelines. Pay attention to them.
Your first lifeline is Audience Poll.
The second lifeline is Video Call A Friend.
The third lifeline is Double Dip.
All right, ladies and gentlemen! Let's play Kaun Banega Crorepati!
[music playing]
[audience applauding and cheering]
All right, Ms. Neha.
Get ready. Coming up is the first question for Rs. 1,000.
It appears on your screen now.
The first question.
Sir, please lock B, Dahi.
She wishes to lock B, Dahi.
It is the right answer.
[audience applauding]
I can't express that lassi
is delicious.

- Okay! - Yes, sir.
Let's move on to the second question for Rs. 2,000.

It appears on your screen now.
Sir, I want to use a lifeline.
Lifeline already? Stop ticking. All right!

Audience Poll. Please activate it, Mr. Computer.
It is your turn.
Your time starts now.
[music playing]
Libra has the maximum number of votes.
73%, Ms. Neha.
- What will you do? - I will go with the audience.
- With the audience? - Please lock Option C.
Lock C, Libra.
It is the right answer.
Thanks.
Thank them.
Thank you!
Those born between September and the middle of October,
are called Librans.
And an ordinary Libran
is seated before you.
Sir, your birthday is nearing.
- On the 11th! - That is what I was saying.
- Happy birthday in advance, sir. - There is still time.
[audience applauding]
Okay, let's move on. Coming up is the third question.

The third question for Rs. 3,000 appears on your screen.
Sir, please lock Option D,
Regular exercise.
It is the right answer.
Well done.
[audience applauding]
You want to be in the army.
I am sure you exercise regularly.
Yes, sir. Regular exercise is a part of my routine.
- Is it? - Yes, sir.
It is crucial.
There was a time
when I used to weigh 93 kg.
- Really? - Yes.
I have reduced my weight. I am currently 70 kg.
Oh my!
[audience applauding]
Your photo is here. Let's look.
This was you before, and this is you now.
Yes, sir.
[audience applauding]
You have shed a lot of weight.
All thanks to the lockdown.
People ate
a lot of food, but I lost weight.
I used to cycle every day.
I used to cycle 25 km every day.
Sometimes I cycle for 50 km.
I also cycled for 75 km
- in one day. - 75 km from Chandigarh?
- I was in Budhlada during COVID. - Okay.
We have Budhlada Cycling Group,
which falls under Bathinda Cycling Group.
- Okay! - I participated in that. My dad's friends are a part of it.
- I used to go cycling with them. - Oh!
75 km.
- Yes. - That is too far.
A person might get lost.
Am I right?
I am so happy that you mentioned cycling.
- Why, sir? Yes, sir. - May I say something to you?
There was Senior Cambridge in my school.
- Okay! - After passing 10th grade, I had to enrol in the university.
- Okay! - So,
I got rejected everywhere I applied.
Then one of my cousins
told me that
Chandigarh University is brilliant.
If we go there, we will get admission there.
I submitted my application, and I was accepted!
How will we travel now?
We rode our bicycles all the way to Chandigarh.
Wow, sir.
Yes.
It didn't take too long to get there. How so?
I held the bus that went there.
[laughing]
I was going along with the bus. I reached early.
We had a story to say that we cycled all the way from Delhi.
[audience laughing and applauding]
Sir, you are fit.
What is the secret behind your fitness?
Do I look fit to you?
- Sir... - Oh please! What are you saying?
Sir, you are the legendary figure of this generation.
- You have always been fit. - All these titles are made up.
People simply make them up.
- They are not made up. - I don't believe in it.
I hope I keep getting work and meet people like you.
And with the hope that I meet my audience.
This is enough for me.
[audience applauding]
- May I say something, Ms. Neha? - Sure, sir.
- I really like your accent. - Yes, sir?
Thank you so much, sir.
Anyone will say you are from Punjab.
[laughing]
All right!
Coming up is the fourth question.
It is for Rs. 5,000.
The fourth question appears on your screen.
There is a smile on your face.
Options!
Sir, please lock Option A, Gidda.
She wishes to lock Gidda.
It is the right answer.
[audience applauding and cheering]
Do you know any couplets?
Yes, sir. There is one.
Yes?
I'd gone away for 12 years!
Yes?
'I'd gone away for 12 years, I brought back silver.'
- 'I'd gone away for 12 years... - 'I'd gone away for 12 years,'
- I brought back silver. - I brought back silver.'
- 'Everyone sing and dance, I don't know 'boli'. - Oh my!
[audience laughing and applauding]
Congratulations to you, Ms. Neha.
- Thank you, sir. - This is the first threshold of the game.
The fifth question for Rs. 10,000 appears on your screen now.
Yes, sir.
Here are the options.
These are the names of books.
Sir, please lock Option B, The Secret.
She wishes to lock B, The Secret.
It is the right answer.
[audience applauding]
This book has been published in many languages.
The claims made in this book
have faced considerable criticism
from the scientific community.
Sir, I follow the teachings of the book The Secret.
One of my teachers told me about this.
There is a movie called The Secret.
My teacher showed that to me 1.5 years ago.
But I didn't understand it back then.
I didn't know what was happening.
One fine day, I purchased the book and I read it.
That is when I understood
that this book is about manifestation.
The law of attraction.
What we seek is what we get.
For example,
I go to the library.
I reach the library around 9 am.
So, I think that I want this seat on this desk.
Or I am certain that I will get a seat at this particular desk.
I go with a positive mindset.
'Neha, there is nothing to worry.'
'You just go.'
And I get the seat at that desk because of my positive mindset.
Oh!
[audience applauding and cheering]
Why didn't you focus on manifesting
your chance to be on KBC and take home 1 crore?
I have, sir. I have Rs. 7 crores in mind.
Wow!
[audience applauding]
Let's play the game.
The Super Sawaal is here.
[bugle sounds]
You are familiar with Super Sawaal.
Mr. Computer, please present the Super Sawaal for Ms. Neha.
[music playing]
[pensive music playing]
- You must have heard these songs. - Yes, sir.
Sir, AR Rahman.
Is that your answer? Her answer is AR Rahman.
Lock it!
Yes, it's the right answer. Well done!
[audience applauding and cheering]
- Congratulations to you, Ms. Neha. - Thank you, sir.
You answered the Super Sawaal correctly.
So, you have been bestowed with a superpower.
The superpower is called Dugnaastra.
[audience applauding]
All right, Ms. Neha.
Coming up is the sixth question.
- It is for Rs. 20,000. - Yes, sir.
The sixth question for Rs. 20,000 appears on your screen.
[music playing]
Here are the options.
[clock ticking]
Sir, please lock Option D.
After careful consideration, her answer is Option D. Lock it!
What were you thinking? It is the right answer.
Good job!
You secured Rs. 20,000.
Let me inform our curious viewers.
In 2008, Nawanshahr district
was renamed to Shaheed Bhagat Singh Nagar.
I have a personal question.
What inspired you to be in the army?
Sir, I had no aim in life.
There are many people who struggle with finding an aim in life.
I hail from a small town.
There is nothing over there.
All that mattered over there is a government job.
- But when I went to college, I joined NCC in the army. - Oh!
And NCC
gave me an aim in life. I had a motive in life.
Maybe that's why the universe hadn't given me an aim in life.
- You manifested it. - So that... Yes, sir.
All right!
Sir, I wanted to ask,
you have worked in a lot of films
as an army official.
How did you feel when you played such roles?
One thing I really appreciate is the uniform.
Yes, sir.
The army officials have a uniform.
- Donning that uniform evokes a different kind of energy. - True.
You will approach each assignment with honesty
and uphold a sense of order. You will be disciplined.
I believe that every citizen of our country
should undergo a mandatory four-month
- military training program. - I agree.
Yes, sir.
So...
- To learn about self-control. - Yes, sir.
To learn about discipline
- and determination. - Yes, sir.
And if, unfortunately, our country
ever reaches a state where we have to fight,
we should be fully prepared.
I have served in the army for about 4 months.
- Yes, sir. - Therefore, I have felt
that if we apply this,
then I will be the first person to be in the army.
[audience applauding and cheering]
Sir, I've heard that Jaya ma'am was also an NCC cadet.
You are right.
Has she ever talked about her experiences as a cadet?
Wow, look! The photo is here.
[audience applauding]
Let me tell you about Mrs. Jaya,
she was a Junior NCC Cadet.
As far as I remember, she told me
- that on Republic Day a parade takes place. - Yes. RDC.
She was in charge of leading her battalion
and she won a Best Cadet Award.
Okay, sir.
Yes!
[audience applauding]
I don't know if that was the right information.
Otherwise, if I go home, I will be beaten up.
Okay!
I hope that when you become an officer,
we will meet again.
And we need people like you
- to protect our country. All right, Ms. Neha. - Yes, sir.
Coming up is the seventh question...
- [bugle sounds] - Wait!
I was moving on with the game and the bugle was sounded.
Ladies and gentlemen, listen!
This bugle signals the nation's question.
So, let's see
which citizen has asked today's question.
The car has left Maharashtra
and reached Delhi. The question will be asked from Delhi.
[upbeat music playing]
Hi, Mr. Amit!
My name is Khushi, and I am from Delhi.
My question is,

Wow! Lovely!
[audience applauding]
Hello, sir.

Sikkim? Wow! Lovely!

Sushruta! That is nice. That's the right answer.
RRR
Well done!
Okay!
All right, Ms. Neha!
Coming up is the seventh question.
It is for Rs. 40,000.
It appears on the screen now.
[music playing]
Options!
[clock ticking]
Sir, I want to use the lifeline.
Lifeline?
Stop ticking. You have used one lifeline.
You have two lifelines left. Video Call A Friend and Double Dip.
Which one?
- Sir, Double Dip. - Double Dip.
You are confused between two answers.
Activate Double Dip.
Now, it is time for you to answer.
You get two chances to answer.
Yes, sir.
What is the first answer?
Mithila. C, Mithila.
She wishes to lock C, Mithila.
It is the right answer. Why did you use a lifeline?
[audience applauding]
- Did you know the answer? - Yes.
I was confused between Mithila and Mathura.
Oh, okay!
Mithila is quite known. That is why Goddess Sita
is also known as Maithili or Vaidehi.
- I later remembered Janak the king of Mithila. - Okay!
All right! It's fine.
Let's move on.
Dugnaastra is still active. Coming up is the eighth question.
You can secure Rs. 80,000 for this.
The eighth question appears on your screen.
[music playing]
Here are the options.
Sir, please lock Option B, Shri Hardeep Singh Puri.
She wishes to lock B.
It is the right answer. Wow!
Well done, Ms. Neha.
Shri Hardeep Singh Puri has served
as the Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas since 2021.
He was the Permanent Representative of India
to the UN, that is United Nations from 2009 to 2013.
All right!
You have two questions left to activate Dugnaastra.
Coming up is the ninth question.
- It is for Rs. 1,60,000. Are you ready? - Yes, sir.
It appears on your screen now.
[music playing]
Hit the buzzer. You were late.
You should have hit the buzzer instantly.
That is fine, sir.
Here are the options.
Sir, please lock Option A, Pancreas.
She wishes to lock A, Pancreas.
It is the right answer. If you had hit the buzzer on time,
you could have won double the amount.
Trypsin breaks down long protein chains
into smaller pieces,
and its name is derived from the Greek word
for 'rubbing'.
Rubbing.
Because it was first isolated by rubbing the pancreas.
Yes, sir.
The pancreas received a massage
and this enzyme was released from it.
This is the last question to avail of the Dugnaastra.
And another warning.
Please don't take any chances, okay?
- You won't get this opportunity again. - Okay.
If you get the answer wrong, you'll fall to Rs. 10,000.
- Okay? - Yes, sir.
The tenth question for Rs. 3,20,000 appears on your screen now.

It's the right answer! Wow! Congratulations!
[audience applauding]
Mt. Kosciuszko in Australia was named by a Polish general
as it reminded him
of a similar-looking mountain in Poland.
It was named after General Kosciuszko.

This is the question you chose to pass.
It is Telangana.
- Okay, sir. - Okay? All right.
One more.
It is Linux.
That's the answer. All right.
Now, you've won Rs. 30,000.

Video Call A Friend.
So, do attempt it come what may.
The eleventh question for Rs. 6,40,000 appears on your screen now.
[music playing]
You have all the time to think.
So, don't rush.
You have one lifeline.
The right answer will fetch you Rs. 6,40,000.
Sir, it is not Jammu & Kashmir Rifles.
It's not Mahar Regiment either.
I'm confused between A and B.
It's either Dogra or the Garhwal Rifles.
[pensive music playing]
- Have you read or heard about it? - Yes, sir.
This was there in one of the movies I've watched.
I can't recollect it
as I watched the movie a long time ago.
- I watched it with Dad. - Okay.
Dogra Regiment or The Garhwal Rifles.
It's one of the two.
'Jwala Mata ki jai.'
'Jwala Mata.'
Goddess Jwala's abode is in the mountains.
It is not in Jammu & Kashmir.
Jwala... Garhwali...
The Garhwali language is spoken in Himachal and Uttarakhand.
[pensive music playing]
- Sir, I wish to take a lifeline. - All right.
Activate the last lifeline, Video Call A Friend, Mr. Computer.
- These are the three names you provided. - Yes.

Mayank, Neha is with me on the hot seat.
'Okay, sir.'
- She needs your help with a question. - 'Yes sir.'
You have to answer within 45 seconds.

- Get ready. - 'Yes sir.'
Neha, your time starts now.
Sir, "Jwala Mata ki jai"
is the war cry of which regiment of the Indian Army?
"Jwala Mata ki jai."
Dogra Regiment.
The Garhwal Rifles.
Jammu & Kashmir Rifles.
Mahar Regiment.
'Neha, most probably, it isn't C or D.'
'It's either Dogra or Garhwal.'
Sir, I am confused between the two.
- 'Because...' - Garhwali is spoken in Uttarakhand
and so is Dogri.
'I think...'
- 'Goddess Jwala's temples are in Himachal...' - Yes, sir.
'Dogras are from Himachal.'
- 'So, go with Dogra if you want.' - Yes.
'Deliberate and then answer, okay?'
Okay, sir. Thank you so much, sir.
- 'Okay. Take care. Look after yourself.' - Thank you.
[buzzer sounds]
It'd have been better had you thanked him after answering this.
What will you do?
Sir...
I have no choice but to answer.
- Sir, I'll go with A, Dogra Regiment. - Okay.
After seeking advice
and contemplating, she said A, Dogra Regiment.
Lock it.
[suspenseful music playing]
What does your professor teach?
Sir, he teaches at my coaching institute.
Oh, okay.
Mayank, your answer was right.
- Dogra Regiment's the right answer. - Thank you, sir.
'Thank you.'
The Dogras predominantly
reside in the mountainous regions of Jammu & Kashmir,
Himachal Pradesh and Punjab.
All right.
You've won Rs. 6,40,000.
You have no lifeline left.
Yes.
- The next question could fetch you Rs. 12,50,000. - Yes, sir.
The twelfth question for Rs. 12,50,000
appears on your screen now.
[music playing]
Options.
I warn all the contestants at this stage.
Guesswork will not do now.
Only if you feel you are absolutely sure of the answer,
I'd suggest that you play further.
Or you could quit at any time with Rs. 6,40,000.
[pensive music playing]
Sir, it is either A or D.
Buckingham Palace
or Kensington Palace.
[pensive music playing]
- King George V... - Have you heard or read about it?
Yes, sir.
First session.
It wasn't in India.
Buckingham Palace or Kensington Palace.
Palace of Westminster. [murmurs]
- Sir, I will quit. - You'll quit.

All right.
We need to give out the answer. Guess one.
Sir, Buckingham Palace.
She wishes to lock A, Buckingham Palace.
No, this is wrong.
The right answer is the Palace of Westminster.
The Round Table Conference was inaugurated by King George V
on 12 November 1930
in the Royal Gallery of the Palace of Westminster.
The Palace of Westminster is
- the current House of Parliament. - Yes.
However, the conference took place in St. James's Palace.
Okay, sir.
This was the right answer.
- My best wishes to you, Neha. - Thank you, sir.
May you succeed in reaching your destination.
I earnestly wish you get enrolled in the Army and protect the nation.
Thank you, sir.
- It's time to say bye. - Yes, sir.

[audience applauding]
How does it feel to be on the hot seat, Amandeep?
- Sir, my dream to come here has been pending for 15 years. - Oh!
At that time, my grandfather was alive and was a big fan.
He watched all your shows.
- Okay. - I used to be little.
Your first show came in 2000.
I dreamed of coming on the show ever since.
I didn't qualify at the time due to my age.
So, I had woven a dream.
The day I'd turn the legal age to be on the show, I'd start trying.
I had many phones at home.
About five phones, and I was determined to try with all of them.
I was crazy to make it to the hot seat.

"It's not my headache."

We went to see her. My wife is from Gwalior.
When we met her,
in the initial 15 minutes, I knew our vibes had matched.

Like I told her, "I won't leave my parents."
"Secondly."
"I'm a miser. I don't spend a lot of money."

"Thirdly..."
She was fond of sport at the time but not a lot.
"If a match is coming on TV, I'll watch it."
