Amitabh Bachchan is gearing up for Kaun Banega Crorepati’s new season, and just two days are left for the reality show to commence. The host is back, this time for KBC 16 and even before the show airs/streams, we are introduced to the participants of this season. The latest to be introduced is Sudheer Kumar, who has come close to winning Rs. 1 crore on the show. Whether he actually does win or not, remains to be seen. But, his background in itself is inspiring. So, here’s everything you need to know about this man’s rags-to-riches story (or at least aspiring to be one)….

Who is Sudheer Kumar?

Sudheer Kumar is a BA graduate who helps his father in farming and agriculture. During his time on the show, Sudheer pointed out that people made fun of him. He further stated that no matter how much they put him through, he did not respond to any of the taunts.

Sudheer continued studying to be a part of KBC

Sudheer continued studying, this time for KBC. He became sure that if he gets an opportunity to be on the show, it will be an answer to all those who questioned him.

Sudheer reaches the question for Rs. 50 lakhs

On the show, Sudheer reached question 14. The prize money for that is Rs. 50 lakhs. Will the contestant be able to win the prize money, or become the first crorepati of KBC 16? Watch the show on SonyLIV and OTTplay Premium to find out.

Amitabh Bachchan is a contestant’s caller tune

You read that right. A lucky contestant named Dipali Soni got a legendary update to her caller tune. She made Amitabh Bachchan record a message in his voice, and she got many takes and versions of his voice too! The caller tune now is, "Main Dipali Soni, Vadodara, Gujarat se," in Amitabh Bachchan’s voice.

KBC 16 will commence from August 12. Like always, it will be out at primetime i.e. at 9 pm. This time, Big B has hinted at new changes to the show, however there’s still no certainty on that front.
