On this week's Kaun Banega Crorepati, Amitabh Bachchan humorously recalls a recent situation where his wife, Jaya Bachchan, asked him to speak in Bengali. However, Bachchan found himself struggling, as he is no longer as fluent in the language saying, "When a guest comes, and you need to talk privately in front of others, Jaya always speaks in Bengali, and I pretend that I understand, but I really don’t. Recently, she was shooting for a film in Goa, and I got a phone call from her. Normally, we talk through messages, but this time, she called, and I got nervous. When my wife calls, I get anxious, not knowing what’s going to happen."
