Amitabh Bachchan has returned with the 16th season of his widely acclaimed show, ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC). Premiering on August 8 this year, the show continues to captivate audiences with its unique blend of knowledge and entertainment. While KBC is celebrated for its educational format, it is often Amitabh Bachchan’s anecdotes and interactions that add an extra layer of warmth and connection to the show.

In a recent episode, the spotlight was on Nareshi Meena, a resident of Sawai Madhopur in Rajasthan, who made headlines as the first contestant to reach the 1 crore question on the show. Nareshi’s journey was particularly poignant as she revealed her battle with a brain tumor. Her primary motivation for participating in the show was to secure the funds needed for proton therapy, a crucial part of her treatment.

Touched by her story, Amitabh Bachchan reassured Nareshi not to worry about the financial aspects of her treatment. He told her that whatever she won on the show could be used for her personal needs. Moreover, Amitabh offered to help with her medical expenses directly, providing a significant emotional boost to Nareshi.

Overwhelmed by Amitabh’s generosity, Nareshi expressed her deep gratitude, stating that her main goal of participating in the show had been achieved thanks to his support. Amitabh, however, downplayed his role, attributing her progress to her knowledge and efforts.

As the episode concluded, viewers were left eagerly awaiting to see if Nareshi would win the full 1 crore prize. Her story has not only highlighted the human side of the game show but also showcased Amitabh Bachchan’s compassionate nature.
