It is said that ‘Knowledge is wealth’. Well, such is true for the hit television show ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’. The show offers anyone and everyone a chance to win large sums of money by answering questions based on general knowledge. The show is much loved by the audience for its engaging format but also due to the host. KBC is popularly hosted by legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan and fans of the show believe he does it justice.
Recently, a new contestant named Sandeep Goel took his place on the hot seat after winning the ‘Fastest finger first’ round. He made his way to the question for Rs 1,60,000/-. The question posed to him was;
Which cricketer, played by Adinath Kothare on screen, is shown injured in this clip from the film 83?
A. Madan Lal, B. Yashpal Sharma, C. Dilip Vengsarkar, D. Kris Srikkanth
He, unfortunately, answered D when the correct answer was C and walked home with Rs 10,000 prize money.
The role of Dilip Vengsarkar in the movie was essayed by popular Marathi actor Addinath Kothare. The actor was amazed that a question about his work was asked on the show by Amitabh Bachchan. He shared a clip of the episode and wrote, “OMG ! Did this actually happen last night ? The living legend amitabhbachchan mentioned MY NAME on national television in his show #kaunbanegacrorepati ! He asked a question about my character from my movie 83thefilm ! Uffff I’m dead ! Thank you amitabhbachchan and team KBC #fanmoment.”
The film ‘83’ is a biography led by Ranveer Singh on the journey of former Indian captain Kapil Dev and his team. The film narrates the journey of the cricket team winning the 1983 Cricket World Cup.
