In Episode 3 last night, Kashish from Delhi, who majored in mathematics, won impressive prize money after playing on the hot seat. Amitabh Bachchan also expressed his joy and wishes for the young woman as she secured enough money to repay her father's debt. Despite the odds, Kashish not only followed her dreams but also helped her family financially. KBC 17 With her confidence and wisdom, Kashish answered many correct questions. She was just 1 question away from 1 crore prize money when she called it quits. Wondering what the tough question was that made her quit? Read on… KBC 17: Kashish stuck at Rs. 1 crore question Kashish, who dreams of making a career in the Indian defense forces, played like a pro in the entire episode. However, she was stuck at the ₹1-crore question. Despite using her revived lifeline 'Sanket Suchak,' which she gained back after the Super Sandook round, Kashish failed to answer this question about the Visigoths. KBC host Amitabh Bachchan also advised Kashish to play the game very carefully and not to do guesswork because sometimes they prove to be wrong. After thinking for a while, Kashish gave up and took home a whopping amount of ₹50 lakh. If you're wondering what the question was, take a look below along with the options. '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, D) Theodoric Any guesses? Well, thankfully, Kashish quit the game because her guess for option B) Aymeric would have been wrong. The correct answer was option C) Alaric. Later, Amitabh Bachchan gave an explanation of how the Romans were obsessed with Indian spices and even traded gold for the exports. Where to watch KBC 17 Kaun Banega Crorepati, or KBC 17, premiered on August 11 with the silver jubilee celebration.

'Womaniser, Ignoring Daughter': Mohammed Shami's Ex-Wife Makes Shocking Claim
Last Updated: Hasin Jahan alleged Mohammed Shami spends lavishly on his girlfriend, from luxury flights to pricey school fees for her kids, while refusing to bear daughter Ayra's education costs Indian fast bowler Mohammed Shami has once again landed in controversy after his estranged wife, Hasin Jahan, alleged in an Instagram post that he did not want their 10-year-old daughter, Ayra, to be admitted to a good school. Ayra has secured a place in a prestigious international school, but Hasin Jahan accused Shami of neglecting her education in favour of his girlfriend's children. She alleged that Shami prioritises the education of his girlfriend's children and lavishes them with expensive luxuries while neglecting Ayra's needs. 'The enemies did not want my daughter to get admission in a good school, but Allah foiled their plans, and she has secured admission to a very good international school," she wrote on Instagram. Hasin Jahan has accused Shami of lavishly spending on his girlfriend, from booking luxury business class flights to paying for her children's admission to expensive schools, while allegedly refusing to bear the cost of their daughter Ayra's education. Hasin Jahan reportedly receives Rs 4 lakh per month in alimony from Shami, including Rs 2.5 lakh specifically for their daughter's expenses. 'The father of my daughter, despite being a billionaire, is playing with her life because of womanizing, while educating his mistress's children in elite schools. He spends lakhs on business class flights for some mistresses but claims he has no money for his own daughter's education," she wrote on Instagram. Mohammed Shami is set to make his comeback in the 2025 Duleep Trophy ahead of the Asia Cup. After a modest IPL season with Sunrisers Hyderabad, he was left out of the England tour. Shami married Hasin Jahan in 2014, and their only daughter, Ayra, was born in 2015, but their relationship has been marred by public allegations and legal disputes. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
