Amitabh Bachchan Gives Advice On Love Marriage On KBC 16: ‘Desh Ke Kone Kone Se…’
Amitabh Bachchan, known for his warm conversations with contestants on Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 (KBC), once again captivated viewers with his words of wisdom and a personal family story. In this week’s episode, Big B highlighted the importance of love and breaking societal barriers while sharing an insightful anecdote from his own life.
The contestant, Ashutosh Singh, a software developer from Vadodara, Gujarat, revealed that his appearance on the show had been a long-cherished dream, especially because it gave him the opportunity to discuss a sensitive issue with his parents. Ashutosh shared that he had not spoken to his parents for five years, following a love marriage. “I’ve not been talking to my parents for five years. I know they watch KBC regularly, so it was important for me to come here and talk to you. Maybe they can listen to us,” he said, visibly emotional.
Deeply moved by Ashutosh’s story, Amitabh responded with empathy, expressing his hope that this appearance would help bridge the gap between Ashutosh and his parents. “I hope that after watching today’s episode, your parents will talk to you again, and you can have the conversation you’ve been longing for,” said Bachchan.
As the conversation unfolded, Big B shared a personal example from his own family, underscoring the value of love transcending cultural and societal boundaries. “Hum hai Uttar Pradesh ke, par chale gaye Bengal. Hamare bhai saab jo hai woh Sindhi parivaar main pahunch gaye, hamari beti Punjabi parivaar mein aur bitwa, aap toh jaante hai… Mangalore,” Amitabh began, laughing as he continued, “My father used to say we’ve brought one daughter-in-law from every part of the country.” His story illustrated how his family embraced diverse cultures and backgrounds, reflecting a spirit of unity in diversity.
The episode also saw Ashutosh reminisce about his childhood admiration for actor Hrithik Roshan. As a fan of Hrithik’s debut film Kaho Na Pyaar Hai, Ashutosh shared how he would decorate his room with posters of the actor and try to mimic his dance moves. Amitabh, recognizing Ashutosh’s passion, responded with a candid reflection on Hrithik’s career.
The exchange between Amitabh Bachchan and Ashutosh Singh not only brought a touching moment of connection but also highlighted the importance of family, love, and embracing differences, creating a memorable episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16.
