A special episode of the Amitabh Bachchan-hosted quiz show Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 16 featured comedians and content creators Samay Raina, Tanmay Bhat, and Bhuvan Bam. A clip from the episode has been making rounds on social media, showcasing Samay joking about Big B’s Sooryavansham.

The video shows Tanmay and Samay sitting on the hot seat while Bhuvan can be seen in the audience. Samay declares that the first Amitabh Bachchan film he ever watched was Sooryavansham, which gets a nod of approval from Big B. However, soon after, Amitabh realises that the statement is a dig at the endless re-runs of the film on television. Samay continues, “The second film of yours that I watched was Sooryavansham, and the third film that I watched was Sooryavansham.” Explaining himself further, he adds, “Kyuki TV pe wohi aati thi (It used to air on TV all the time).” His remark leaves Amitabh Bachchan in splits.

During the episode, Amitabh also quoted his famous dialogue, “Rishte mein toh hum tumhare baap lagte hain, naam hai Shahenshah,” from his iconic film Shahenshah. Seizing the opportunity, Samay quickly quipped, “Aapne beta bana hi diya hai toh property mein thoda hissa? (If you’ve made me your son, can I have a share in your property?)” while folding his hands in a pleading gesture, making the audience burst into laughter.

Samay Raina is a comedian and chess enthusiast who jointly won Comicstaan Season 2 with Aakash Gupta. He regularly streams live chess matches and has been making headlines for his hugely popular YouTube show, India’s Got Latent. Tanmay Bhat, on the other hand, is a well-known comedian and co-founder of the now-disbanded but widely influential comedy group All India Bakchod (AIB). He currently runs multiple YouTube channels featuring reaction videos, investment discussions, and more.

Continuing his jokes, Samay shares a hilarious anecdote about trying to enter Amitabh Bachchan’s Juhu bungalow, Jalsa, only to be severely beaten by security guards. “Mujhe hi nahi, mere dadi ko dhoondhke peeta sir (Not just me, they even found my grandmother and beat her up),” he exclaims. The video ends with Samay delivering another punchline: “Mujhe believe nahi ho raha sir, aapko humare saath baithna pad raha hai (I can’t believe, sir, that you have to sit with us),” once again leaving Big B in fits of laughter.
