Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 grand finale: Amitabh Bachchan bids farewell and shares ‘Yeh chah issi tarah bani rahe aur kabhi na tute’

The grand finale of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 began on an emotional note as host Amitabh Bachchan expressed his gratitude to the contestants, studio audience, and loyal viewers for their unwavering support. Acknowledging the journey of the season, he thanked everyone who contributed to making it special.

As the episode progressed, the Fastest Finger First round determined the next contestant, with Mayur Jain securing his spot on the hot seat. Noticing his ever-present smile, Big B curiously asked him about it. Mayur revealed that this was his first time meeting an actor, and his happiness was amplified by the presence of his parents on the show.

Hailing from Vidisha, Madhya Pradesh, Mayur Jain shared that appearing on Kaun Banega Crorepati had been a childhood dream. He had previously attempted to register for KBC Juniors but did not make it through. Displaying confidence and strategic use of lifelines, Mayur easily won Rs 6,40,000.

For Rs 12,50,000, Mr. Bachchan presented the question: Which country was the first to welcome the new millennium on 1st January 2000? Unsure of the answer, Mayur decided to quit the game. Before leaving, he took a guess and selected Option D) Samoa, but the correct answer was Option C) Kiribati. He walked away with Rs 6,40,000 along with an additional Rs 80,000 as a bonus.
