Amitabh Bachchan will host the seventh season of the gameshow Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC), which he has helped to make so popular.
The format of the show remains the same but there are a few changes -- the prize money has been increased to Rs 7 crores, a life line called Power Paplu has been added, the fastest finger first will not be the best out of three, the time limit of the phone-a-friend has increased, and the set and location has changed.
Bachchan doesn’t like to take credit for the popularity of the show. "I take zero credit. The show is very well constructed and not just a simple question and answer thing. Very deep research has gone into it.
