The 17th season of Kaun Banega Crorepati has returned and has so far kept viewers glued to their TVs. Vijay Chaddha from Nashik, Maharashtra, just joined the quiz-based reality show presented by Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan.

Vijay Chaddha talked candidly about her desire to become KBC's hot seat since the show's debut in 2000 in the most recent promotional video, which the producers posted on Instagram.
