There
was a special episode of ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ on Sony Entertainment, which
aired on last Sunday, 7th October, 2012, where film actress Sridevi and
debutant director Gauri Shinde were present as celebrity contender for the mega
game show. As you know, Bollywood’s
legend actor Amitabh Bachchan has comeback to his earlier role. The mega quiz show was started with Amitabh
as an anchor, later Shah Rukh Khan was roped in replacing Amitabh for the third
phase of the show, but in respect of TRP, Amitabh definitely scored better than
SRK and so when Sony settled to air the show for the fourth time they called
back Big B again, and since then Big B has been the one and only choice for
hosting the show gracefully. Now the
show has stepped in its 6th phase.
Surely Amitabh fits best in the quiz master’s seat, but on the 7th October’s special episode inviting
Sridevi and Gauri for participating in the quiz show has raised eyebrows of many. Though replying to Bachchan’s question about what she will do with the amount she will win in the show, Sridevi told she would like to donate the amount to a blind home of Chennai, the air however didn’t get clear. Some section of media already has started talking about Sony and Bachchan’s role in inviting the two lady, whose film ‘English Vinglish’ released just two days back on October 5. If only Sridevi were invited, then the matter couldn’t be so complicated. Because Sridevi, as an ace actress anytime and any day could be summoned to grace a show, but why Gauri? Gauri just debuted in ‘English Vinglish’ and she needed to be focused and KBC provided her such platform from where she can boost up the box office collections of ‘English Vinglish’. What’s more, Bachchan while introducing them emphasized only on their respective role in the film ‘English Vinglish’. Sridevi plays the lead role and Gauri is the director of the film. Even Gauri’s husband R. Balki, who was also present in the show, though in audience seat, was introduced by Bachchan as the director of two of his recent films – ‘Cheeni Kum’ and ‘Paa’. Once even Amitabh wished success of ‘English Vinglish’ saying how the film has moved him and made him cry.
However when Sridevi reminded Bachchan that after a long gap, she has got an opportunity to play with him in the film, Amitabh quickly stopped Sridevi saying not to say too much about this as it can create problems. Amitabh plays a cameo in the film. Seeing the whole episode, if people mistake it as ‘English Vinglish’ promotional, they cannot be blamed anyway.
