Kaun Banega Crorepati 17, presented by Amitabh Bachchan, goes beyond a quiz programme; it merges humour, warmth, and transformative experiences.

Amitabh Bachchan's charisma and the contestants' entertaining tales make every episode enjoyable. A new promo for an upcoming episode was launched showcasing well-known stand-up comedians Harsh Gujral, Ravi Gupta, Abhishek Upmanyu, and Anubhav Bassi.

Before the quiz started, Abhishek Upmanyu eased the atmosphere with a joke: "Mera naam Abhishek hai… Apna beta samajh kar sawaal poochhiye aur jaydad likhiye." (My name is Abhishek; think of me as your son when you ask me questions and include me in your property). This clever comment made Amitabh Bachchan burst into laughter. The humour persisted as Amitabh Bachchan jokingly referred to Abhishek quitting three jobs. Abhishek joked, "While some claim I resigned, I prefer to say I was pushed out."

Abhishek increased the enjoyment by stating, "I had no responsibility in this, sir. They concentrated more on my flaws, such as my tardiness and work ethic. They said that I do not come on time. However, they overlooked my admirable qualities, such as leaving home punctually.” His deadpan humour maintained a vibrant, entertaining, and captivating atmosphere.
