Amitabh Bachchan Stumps Contestant on Ramayana Question in KBC 17

In the latest episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 17, which aired on October 3rd, 2025, rollover contestant Shraddha took the hot seat and showcased her impressive general knowledge. However, she encountered a challenge when faced with a question related to the Hindu epic Ramayana.

The ₹7.5 lakhs question asked who Lord Rama had sent as a messenger to Sugreev to remind him of his promise to search for Goddess Sita. Confused by the options, Shraddha used a lifeline and correctly identified Lakshman as the messenger.

According to the Valmiki Ramayana, Lord Rama and Lakshman had befriended Sugreev, the king of Kishkindha, and made a pact with him. While Rama promised to help Sugreev defeat his brother Vali and regain his rightful throne, Sugreev gave his word that he would assist Rama in the search for Goddess Sita, who had been abducted by Ravan.

However, after Rama killed Vali, Sugreev became so engrossed in enjoying his new life and the luxuries of kingship that he seemingly forgot about his vow. That's when Rama asked Lakshman to visit Sugreev in Kishkindha and remind him of his duty.

Shraddha eventually took home a prize money of ₹12.5 lakhs after failing to answer the 13th question, worth ₹25 lakhs.
