Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, hosted by Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan, kicked off on August 12. The new season of the popular quiz show continues to thrill audiences with its insightful and heartfelt moments. The latest episode saw contestant Shreem Sharma, an astrologer from Moga, Punjab, gracing the hot seat. The newly married contestant was accompanied by his wife and mother to cheer for him during the episode. As soon as Shreem graced the hot seat, tears rolled down Shreem's mother's eyes. He later explained to Big B that his mom was a huge fan of KBC 16, so he knew exactly what the moment meant for her. ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ 16: Do You Know How Much Amitabh Bachchan Earned From His Job in Kolkata?

Having exhausted all his lifelines, Shreem still wanted to test his luck and chose option C but backed off later. Big B then informed him that option C would have been a wrong answer, as the correct answer was Times Square, New York. He then secured himself INR 12.50 lakh by deciding to quit the show. Sharma, who had expressed his interest in travel vlogging, was wished by Big B to fulfil his dreams. ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ 16: This Is How Amitabh Bachchan Turns Contestant’s Dream Into Reality on KBC 16 Show (Watch Video).
