Big B addresses buzz over his appearance on KBC 17, says he's trying to rectify

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan, 82, has responded to the recent buzz surrounding his changing appearance during his ongoing stint on 'Kaun Banega Crorepati 17'. The veteran actor attributed the change to age but assured fans that he is working on 'rectifying it.'Sharing on his official blog, the 'Sholay' actor wrote, 'The days at the 25th year of KBC continue the audience reactions in the glorious sets are encouraging some media friends express that my look has changed and that I should look into that and rectify it. Am trying to do that to the best I can for my age. Till then your applause and love keeps me running in and forms the impetus needed and the encouragement needed for me to conduct what I have been doing for the past 23 years.' advertisementIn another post, Bachchan opened up about the most challenging part of hosting the game show. 'We sit on the hot seat and meet and confront the contestants that have ambitious hopes of winning during the week of their stay on the floor and when they cannot make it, it's the hardest to control the frustration of defeat and lost opportunity for them yes, but for me as well,' he shared. He further explained, 'It is emotionally shattering to [see] their tears swell up as they find the week over, the Hooter played and the need to come and play, for whatever personal reasons, goes missing. No amount of consolation at the time can give them solace and understanding, the need for some is crucial, the opportunity for some who have sacrificed their study or job opportunities to be at the FF and then the main chair to play and WIN, lost. Difficult to face such moments but what can be done, a smile of 'try again', a word of encouragement that all shall be fine. Loss is not the end of life, its a learning.'On the work front, Bachchan was last seen in 'Vettaiyan', his Tamil debut directed by TJ Gnanavel, alongside Rajinikanth, Fahadh Faasil, and Rana Daggubati. Earlier, he portrayed Ashwatthama in Nag Ashwin's 'Kalki 2898 AD', which grossed Rs 1,042.25 crore worldwide. He will reprise the role in the sequel, set to begin filming in December 2025. The actor is currently hosting 'KBC 17' and will next be seen in Ribhu Dasgupta's 'Section 84' with Diana Penty and Nimrat Kaur.- EndsMust Watch IN THIS STORY#Amitabh Bachchan

Amitabh Bachchan Opens Up on Emotional Side of KBC 17, Shares How Contestants' Exit Affects Him

Amitabh Bachchan, deeply moved by contestants leaving Kaun Banega Crorepati empty-handed, shares his emotional turmoil on his blog. He acknowledges the contestants' sacrifices and the difficulty of seeing their hopes dashed after the Fastest Finger First round. Amitabh Bachchan , as a way of connecting with fans, often shares daily updates with his fans through his personal blog. Since the latest season of Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) aired, Bachchan shared how it is emotionally tough to see some of the Fastest Finger First contestants leave empty-handed after a week of hoping to secure a spot on the hot seat. He said that it is hard to control the frustration of defeat and lost opportunity, not just for the contestants but for him as well. He added that watching the contestants leave without getting a chance to play affects him too, and is 'deeply shattering.' Bachchan admitted that it is 'emotionally shattering' to watch the contestants' eyes full of hope with tears when the week ends, the buzzer sounds, and their opportunity slips away. He explained how many of them left behind their jobs, studies, or other important commitments just for a shot at the game, only to go home empty-handed. In those moments, no amount of comforting words can truly make them feel better. He said all he can do in that moment is offer them a smile, encourage them to try again, and remind them that losing is not the end but just a lesson to move a step forward. Quoting a Hindi saying, he wrote, 'मन का हो तो अच्छा; नाहो तो ज़्यादा अच्छा' (If things go your way, it's good; if they don't, it's even better), stating that life's challenges often lead to growth. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 3 and 4 BHK Apartments from ₹ 1.75 Crore* Birla Estates Learn More Undo He also reflected on how, as the show moves forward, his thoughts often stay with those who tried their best but did not win, rather than the actual winners.
