Kaun Banega Crorepati audience were left in tears as Amitabh Bachchan”s final scenes as a host shot with special invitees Vidya Balan and Sara Ali Khan sharing their overwhelming moments with Big B filled with emotions and nostalgia.
As Vidya Balan narrates how Big B influenced her childhood and Sara Ali Khan shares a memorable incident at KBC involving Sharmila Tagore and Jaya Bachchan, Bachchan is left in tears.
Vidya Balan also shared a precious compilation video of KBC filled with memorable instances, including Amitabh Bachchan talking about his wife, Jaya Bachchan. As the episode came to an end, there was a special message from Kaun Banega Crorepati”s stage for the megastar. The voice-over was, “Namaste Amitji, main KBC ka manch hu. 23 years ago, a bond was created between you, me, and India”s audience. The bond has been inseparable, and we all would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”
While watching the video, Big B breaks down in tears and says, “Today”s game ends here; this is the last day today. Devi aur Sajjano, ab hum jaa rahe aur kal se yeh manch ab nahi sajega. Apno se yeh keh pana ki kal se hum nahi aayenge. I don”t have the courage to say these words, nor do I wish to say them. I remember when we began with this journey, there were these thoughts that one day all this would come to an end. I used to forget about the thought and immerse myself in the contestants” joy, the blissful moments with my audience, but this couldn”t stop this end. Har ek anth, naye prarambh ko janm deta hai.”
He further shared, “I am taking a ray of hope that in the last 20 weeks, the honour we gave to education will continue. Aam aadmi ka samman uske makaan se nahi, uske swabhimaan hota hai, child security, educating women, and all the social issues we mentioned should be discussed, and there must be a change. Yahi humari aasha hai, aur yahi humari prarthana hai. Ab aapse phir mulakat ki umeed ke saath samapt ho raha hai.”
Kaun Banega Crorepati is considered a game changer in the Indian media industry as it featured the all-time Super Star of Indian Cinema, Amitabh Bachchan, embarking on a mini-screen journey as a host. It was a momentous experience for Indian viewers, as they were used to seeing Big B shining in celluloid, powered by his solemn sound and dashing appearance.
