Kaun Banega Crorepati 17: 21-Year Old Contestant Fails To Answer This Rs 1 Crore Question. Can You?

New Delhi: Kaun Banega Crorepati returned for its 17th season on August 11. The quiz-based reality show marks the return of quiz master, film veteran Amitabh Bachchan. In the third episode, it was 21-year-old contestant Kashish Singhal who grabbed the hot seat. Kashish Singhal was the first participant who attempted a Rs 1 crore question but unfortunately she failed to answer that. The Rs 1 crore question asked by Big B was, "Which king of the Visigoths demanded pepper, which ancient Rome usually traded from India, as ransom to lift a siege on the city?". The options were – A) Ludovic, B) Aymeric, C) Alaric and D) Theodoric. Kashish Singal, who successfully passed all the previous rounds, got stuck in the question. With one lifeline left she used the 'Sanket Suchak' (Hint-Giver). However, the 21-year-old was unsure about the correct answer and decided to quit, taking home Rs 50 lakhs. The correct answer was Option C – Alaric. For context, king of the Visigoths, Alaric I famously demanded a ransom during his siege of Rome in 408 CE. The items included gold, silver, silk, hides — and 3,000 pounds of pepper. Pepper, a luxury ingredient in ancient Rome, was mostly imported from India through long-distance trade routes, underscoring its value as a mark of wealth. During a conversation with the host Kahish Singhal expressed her love for Mathematics. The 21-year-old also revealed that she was preparing for defense courses ever since she passed her 12th class. She planned on paying a loan of Rs 15 lakhs with the money. Kaun Banega Crorepati is set to welcome three female members from the Indian Armed Forces for a special Independence Day episode. In the promo video, Amitabh Bachchan was seen welcoming Colonel Sofiya Qureshi of the Indian Army, Wing Commander Vyomika Singh of the Indian Air Force and Commander Prerna Deosthalee of the Indian Navy, who played a major role during the media briefings on Operation Sindoor.

Rajinikanth to break Rajinikanth's record : ‘Coolie' all set to challenge ‘2.0' day 1 record of Rs 60 crore

Rajinikanth's 'Coolie,' directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, is poised to challenge the opening day record set by his own film, 2.0. With massive advance bookings already at Rs 46.36 crore, fueled by a star-studded cast and the Rajinikanth-Lokesh Kanagaraj combination, 'Coolie' is expected to potentially surpass Rs 60 crore on day one. Superstar Rajinikanth is on the verge of creating box office history once again by toppling his own record. The actor's latest outing, Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj , has registered staggering advance booking numbers, setting the stage for an opening that could challenge the benchmark he set back in 2018 with 2.0. Back then, 2.0, co-starring Akshay Kumar and directed by Shankar , opened to a record-smashing Rs 60.25 crore in India across all languages on its first day. Six years later, Coolie is primed to chase down that milestone, riding on unprecedented audience excitement and a star-studded ensemble. Massive advance bookings According to early data, Coolie has clocked an advance booking gross of Rs 37.2 crore from 1.73 million tickets sold across India without counting block seats. Factoring in those blocked seats, the figure jumps to a staggering Rs 46.36 crore, putting the film well within striking distance of 2.0's opening day total even before the first show has rolled out. Breaking down the numbers, the Tamil version leads the charge with Rs 27.92 crore from over 1.29 million tickets, spread across 7,235 shows with the rest coming in from Telugu, Hindi and Kannada versions. The combined show count for all languages stands at 13,083, a testament to the scale at which Coolie is rolling out nationwide. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas Prices In Dubai Might Be More Affordable Than You Think Villas In Dubai | Search Ads Get Quote Undo The buzz around Coolie has been fuelled by the blockbuster combination of Rajinikanth and Lokesh Kanagaraj, one of Tamil cinema's most successful contemporary directors.

By 10 AM the film has already minted Rs 14.25 crore. Trade analysts point out that with such a high advance booking figure and the expected surge in spot bookings Coolie could potentially breach the RS 60 crore mark on day one, making it the biggest opener in Rajinikanth's career and one of the top openings in Indian cinema just advance booking numbers Coolie sits on 3rd spot and Jailer being on 2nd spot with Rs 48 crore collection. Even if Coolie fails to beat 2.0's numbers as it has less shows thanks to clash with War 2 starring Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR and Kiara Advani , it will become Rajinikanth's second biggest day 1 opener. But if it happens, it would mean Rajinikanth surpassing Rajinikanth, dethroning his own 2.0 record after six years. All eyes are now on the first-day actuals. If early trends are any indication, Coolie won't just be a commercial win, it could be a career-defining moment in Rajinikanth's already illustrious journey.
