Bachchan said that the 27-year-old wants the cheque at the an upcoming award ceremony in the national capital.
People asking why Sushil Kumar not paid his KBC win… cheque ready,but he wants it at CNN-IBN Award ceremony in Delhi on 16th. Also as per terms and conditions of Sony,they have to pay within 60 days of on air broadcast… so still time for expiry, Bachchan tweeted.
