Kaun Banega Crorepati 16: Host Amitabh Bachchan Reveals ‘Khaike Paan Banaras Waala’ Song Was Not Originally In Don; Says ‘It Was Added On Manoj Kumar’s Suggestion’

The latest episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 kicked off with rollover contestant Rahul Ashok Sachdeo, who had secured Rs 20,000 in the previous episode. Host Amitabh Bachchan playfully teased him about his fiancée and inquired if they had spoken since the last episode. Rahul revealed that his soon-to-be wife has a special request—she wants Big B to attend their wedding in May.

Mr Bachchan resumes the game and asks Rs 40,000 question. In which system of the human body are the superior vena cava and the inferior cava primarily involved? Rahul confidently answers Option D) Circulatory and wins the amount. Moving ahead, Rahul faces the question for Rs 80,000 for which he uses his lifeline ‘Video Call A Friend’.
In which mountain range is the Siachen Glacier situated? With the help of the lifeline, he selects Option C) Karakorum and wins the amount.

Rahul opened up about the hardships he faced growing up. He recalled about the times he went to collect his results but was denied his marksheet due to unpaid fees. Despite being among the top five students, he couldn’t celebrate his achievements like the others. While the other students celebrated their success, he struggled with unpaid school fees. To support their family his father ran a small stationery shop. Despite challenges, he firmly believes that the name of a college doesn’t define success—what truly matters is wisdom and knowledge. For Rahul, Kaun Banega Crorepati is not just a quiz show but a chance to bring a positive change in his life, a dream he has cherished since childhood.
