Comedians' KBC Journey: From PCO Calls to Amitabh's Couch
20 Sep
Summary
- Comedians shared amusing anecdotes with Bollywood veteran Amitabh Bachchan.
- Gaurav Kapoor recalled calling KBC daily from a PCO in college.
- Jokes about 'Sooryavansham' and its famous kheer scene were shared.
The most recent episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati was enlivened by the presence of comedians Varun Grover, Gaurav Kapoor, and Gaurav Gupta on September 18.
During their time on the show, Gaurav Kapoor recounted his college days in 2000, reminiscing about his persistent efforts to get on KBC. He shared that he would call the show daily from a PCO, a habit that likely led the PCO owner to believe he was experiencing heartbreak due to his frequent, pleading calls.
He also humorously detailed the cost of these calls, noting that at Rs 6 per call, the slow pace of the response on the other end felt like a financial burden. The conversation then shifted to Amitabh Bachchan's enduringly popular film, Sooryavansham.
Gaurav Gupta lightheartedly inquired if kheer would be served at Bachchan's home, referencing the film's memorable kheer sequence. Gupta also shared how the film influenced his family, leading to a tradition where the person who prepared the kheer must taste it first.
