On Wednesday, he welcomed a contestant named Kapil Dev on the hot seat. While interacting with him, Big B not only discussed his bearded look, but also shared an interesting anecdote about Shah Rukh Khan and his wife Gauri Khan.
A question posed to Kapil required him to answer whose wife is the author of the book My Life in Design. The contestant was given the following options: Sachin Tendulkar, Shah Rukh Khan, Akshay Kumar and Chetan Bhagat. He picked the correct one. As Big B lauded his quick response, he spoke about Gauri‘s new book and shared that it chronicles her journey as a designer, and also has many exclusive photos of her family.
He then shared that he was recently shooting with SRK, and was quite impressed by his vanity van, calling it ‘bohot khoobsurat‘ (very beautiful). Bachchan shared that it had a TV, chairs, sliding doors, space for make up and even a bathroom. “Shah Rukh told me that Gauri has designed it. He even said that I would ask her to design one for you,” he said, adding with a laugh, “Par abtak aayi nahi hai (But she is yet to come).”

As the contestant asked him how he maintains his beard, the superstar said that it maintains itself. He then went on to share that his look came after the film Aks. “I was made to maintain my beard like this. I saw myself in the mirror and liked this style. And ever since, I have kept this beard. Also, as you age, there are a lot of things that add to your face like a double chin, and wrinkles. I realised it helps hide the double chin and also keeps me wrinkle-free. So I continued with this style, and trim it from time to time.”
Kapil Dev told Amitabh Bachchan how his warnings could really lead to a health scare for contestants. Big B told the contestant how he needs to be sure of his answer or else he’ll lose his winning amount. The contestant then requested the host that while he has a strong heart, the anticipation that Big B creates can cause a lot of problems. “Sir, kisi heart patient ke sath yeh na kare. Warna woh hot seat se sidha bed seat pe pahuch jayega (Don’t do this with a heart patient otherwise they will reach the hospital bed from the hot seat).” His comment left the host embarrassed as he let out a loud laugh.
The contestant won Rs 70K in the Super Sandook round and revived his audience poll lifeline. He won Rs 12,50,000 on the episode, and will be the roll-over contestant in tonight’s episode.
