Amitabh Bachchan's Kaun Banega Crorepati returns on both the big screen as well as on OTT. Yes, season 17 is almost ready and will be out sooner than we can expect. At least, the registration for the show will open soon. Are you ready for it? Probably not, since season 16 ended not too long ago, but here we are already!
Here's when and where you can watch KBC 17...
When to watch KBC 17?
KBC registration would commence from April 14. Yes, KBC 17 will be back from coming Monday. Although the registration will commence from April, the actual season is likely to go on air in August.
Where to watch KBC 17?
KBC 17 will be out on both TV as well as OTT. Digitally, the show will be available on SonyLIV. You can stream the very season with just an OTTplay Premium subscription.
Why are fans confused about KBC 17?
KBC 17 is back almost right after KBC 16 came to an end. The previous season of the Amitabh Bachchan-hosted show ended in February this year. This has left KBC fans confused because they were just invested in playing the quiz show with Big B, and suddenly, they are asked to register again within the same year, in a gap of two months' time.
Amitabh Bachchan associated with KBC since its inception
Just like Salman Khan is now the face of Bigg Boss, Amitabh Bachchan is associated with KBC. He has hosted the show from 2000, with Shah Rukh Khan on the hot seat for just one season. In fact, Big B's voice has become synonymous with KBC and the makers have just not found a replacement. The viewers have also loved seeing him and keep eagerly waiting for senior Bachchan to come back and announce at least one crorepati every season.
