Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 17 is set to deliver a laughter-filled evening with a special comedy episode featuring popular stand-up artists Anubhav Singh Bassi, Ravi Gupta, Abhishek Upmanyu, and Harsh Gujral.

The episode promises fun conversations, jokes, and lighthearted moments with host Amitabh Bachchan, as seen in several promo videos shared by the channel on social media.

Anubhav Singh Bassi shares a humorous exchange with Amitabh Bachchan, pointing out similarities between them, “Both our initials are AB, I’ve acted in a film, so I can count myself as an actor like you, and I even studied at your college — Kirori Mal College in Delhi.”

Amitabh Bachchan responds warmly, expressing how proud he feels of Bassi. Bassi also recalls a funny hostel prank during the episode. He said, “The boys used to prank me. They’d ask me to stand outside any room and shout your famous catchword ‘Hyein’ to open the door. I did it multiple times.”
