On Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, Amitabh Bachchan Reminisces Nainital Boarding Days and Shares Thrilling Encounter with a Leopard!

This week on Sony Entertainment Television, the beloved knowledge-based game show Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 16 features bright young minds aged 8 to 15 in KBC Juniors. Among the contestants is Delhi’s Bhavik Garg, a 5th grader with a mature outlook and a keen interest in learning about the history of India.

The legendary host, Amitabh Bachchan, tells young Bhavik, “My computer is very smart; it informed me that you’ve written a book.” Bhavik responds that he is indeed working on it, and the title is “History of India.” He adds that he has completed 86 pages of the book, and once it’s finished, he plans to publish it and gift a copy to AB. Mr. Bachchan promises Bhavik that he is so inspired by him that he will post a picture of Bhavik’s book on his social media along with his autograph.

Big B also feels nostalgic as he talks to Bhavik, remembering his schooling in Nainital. He recalls the excitement of boarding school, where the thrill of the unknown came with the possibility of leopards hiding in the shadows. He recalls, “One day, a man came running, shouting that a leopard had appeared. Panic spread through the crowd; some were too scared to move, while others grabbed hockey sticks and tennis rackets, eager to see the wild animal. When they looked behind the bushes and spotted the leopard’s tail, fear took over, and everyone ran away in different directions back to the school. Among them was a boy who usually sat on the sidelines because of his health issues and rarely played, he was advised against it. But even he couldn’t resist the urge to see the leopard. My younger brother, who went to the same school, was amazed to see the boy, usually so quiet, running faster than anyone else. My brother said he heard the sound of something whizzing past him and thought it was the leopard but it turned out to be the sound of the boy running fast, driven by instinct to escape, who surprised everyone with his speed despite his medical condition. Hamare school mein aise sab hua karta tha,” he laughed.
