Nareshi shared that if she wins, she plans to use the prize money to treat her brain tumor and recover her mother’s jewelry, which was sold to fund her treatment.
She credits her father, a humble farmer, for always supporting her education. In the first episode, Amitabh Bachchan became emotional, expressing gratitude to the audience, “I can’t find the words to thank you for your prayers that gave new life to ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati,’ reigniting this stage and reuniting a family, allowing me to be here among you.
“I salute the people of this country for the resurrection, rebuilding, and rebirth of KBC. This stage is yours, this game is yours, and this season belongs to you. To honor your love, I will give twice the effort, and I trust you will continue to support me.”
Nareshi Meena’s Performance
In an unfortunate turn of events, Nareshi Meena failed to answer the Rs.1 crore question and quit the show. Meena preferred to take Rs. 50 lakh home as the winning prize.
The Rs.1 crore question was, “Whom did Leela Row Dayal beat to become the first Indian woman to win a singles match at the Wimbledon Tennis Championship?”
On the work front, Amitabh Bachchan recently won hearts with his performance in ‘Kalki 2898 AD,’ which also featured Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, and Kamal Haasan in key roles. The film was a massive success, breaking several box office records and earning over Rs. 1000 crore.
