Karan Johar is a happy man as the filmmaker tonight knew the answer to Rs 1 crore question in Kaun Banega Crorepati 11. It's definitely a big deal and K Jo has all the right reasons to be happy about it. The question revolved Dara Shikoh - a prominent character from his next directorial, Takht. He was Aurangzeb's elder son and Ranveer Singh is all set to portray him on the big screen. 

"I knew the 1 crore answer!!!!!! #DARASHIKOH and so would you have @RanveerOfficial  #TAKHT", Karan tweeted while sharing a screenshot of the question from Amitabh Bachchan's reality show. The question was to guess the ruler's name whose Persian translation of several Upanishads is known as 'Sirr-e-Akbar'. Dara Shikoh was the right answer and we wonder if there was anyone else apart from the filmmaker and Ranveer (he claims so) who knew the answer.

Karan is returning to the director's seat after Ae Dil Hai Mushkil that released in 2016. It's his dream project that has a stellar star cast of Ranveer Singh, Vicky Kaushal, Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Janhvi Kapoor, Bhumi Pednekar and Anil Kapoor. The film is expected to go on floors in February next year and you can expect a release in 2021.
