This week on the iconic Amitabh Bachchan's Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, viewers will meet Ashutosh Singh, a software developer from Vadodara, Gujarat, who is absolutely obsessed with Hrithik Roshan.
Ashutosh reminisces about his youth and Hrithik's first film, Kaho Na Pyaar Hai, stating that when the actor's first movie was released, they would get posters, and he used to go to the theatre with his friends. The poster was a constant companion in his room, where he would gaze upon it to mimic Hrithik's dancing techniques.
Ashutosh has warm memories of the time his teachers rewarded him with photographs of Hrithik whenever he turned in his schoolwork. It would make his day if someone said he looked even slightly like him.
In a lighthearted exchange, Ashutosh casually asks Amitabh Bachchan about his time working with Hrithik. The legendary star made an honest observation, stating that he is an ordinary human being who dances wonderfully.
In the aftermath of a light-hearted moment, Bachchan challenges Ashutosh to a dance routine to a song by Hrithik Roshan. "Waah, well done," Big B says after Ashutosh's performance, adding that he dances like Hrithik.
Ashutosh breaks the awkward silence by revealing that appearing on KBC has been a lifelong dream of his, particularly in light of his love marriage. For the past five years, he has avoided communicating with his parents. Their frequent viewing of KBC made it imperative for him to come here and discuss this with Big B, in the hopes that they might listen to him.
With a heartfelt response, Bachchan stated that he hopes that after watching today's episode, his parents will talk to him again, and he can have the conversation he has been longing for.
To further illustrate the significance of love and overcoming social obstacles, Amitabh Bachchan uses a personal story about himself and his family. He said that they are from Uttar Pradesh, but they went to Bengal. His elder brother ended up in a Sindhi family, his daughter in a Punjabi family, and his son—well, everyone knows, Mangalore. Bachchan's father used to say earlier that they had brought everyone together from every corner of the country.
