On October 27, 2025, Himanshu Shekhar, a station master from Khagaria, Bihar, appeared on the latest episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 17. Hosted by Amitabh Bachchan, the show saw Shekhar successfully navigate a series of questions using various lifelines.
One of the notable moments was when Shekhar used the audience poll lifeline to answer a question about the 2008 film Ghajini, in which the characters Kalpana and Sanjay Singhania were played by Asin and Aamir Khan. Later, he also used the 50:50 lifeline to correctly identify Shubman Gill as the Indian men's Test cricket captain as of May 2025.
Shekhar shared a humorous anecdote about a time when he and his friends mistook complimentary hand-washing water for a beverage and added salt to it. Bachchan praised Shubman Gill's captaincy, calling him an "inspiration" for his young age and impressive performance.
Ultimately, Shekhar decided to quit the game after the Rs 12,50,000 question, taking home a prize of Rs 7,50,000. As a reward, he also received a lunch invitation to Bachchan's house, where the host promised to serve him the specialty Gajar Ka Halwa.
