Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, hosted by cinema icon Amitabh Bachchan, continues to get immense love from the viewers. In the episode that aired on Thursday (September 19), contestant Jaya from Gujarat took the hot seat. Speaking about her background, Jaya revealed that she is an engineer who is currently focusing on farming. Jaya's presence of mind and general knowledge were commendable; however, when she reached the INR 50 lakh question about British colonisation, she decided to quit the game. She took home INR 25 lakh prize money. ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati 16’: Contestant Rakshinda Alvi Fails To Answer THIS INR 50 Lakh Cricket Question, Can You?.

Having used her last remaining lifelines on the previous question, Jaya decided to quit the show. After sending her the winning amount, Big B asked Jaya to make a guess, and she replied, "Grenada". However, Grenada was the wrong answer. The correct answer was Ivory Coast. FYI, the British did not colonize Ivory Coast, but the French did. It became a French colony in 1893, and the colonial period lasted for about a century. ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati 16’: Amitabh Bachchan Sings His Hit Track ‘Pardesiya’ With Shreya Ghoshal and Sonu Nigam in New Promo (Watch Viral Video).
