Sunidhi Chauhan shares experience of taking hot seat in 'KBC' opposite Big B
Mumbai, Aug 12
Playback singer Sunidhi Chauhan recently expressed her gratitude as appeared on the quiz based reality show 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' season 18 for a special episode alongside acclaimed lyricist and poet Prasoon Joshi.
As she stepped out to pose for the paparazzi, after shooting for the episode, the singer shared her heartfelt experience of sitting across from host Amitabh Bachchan.
She described the opportunity as a dream come true, the powerhouse singer opened up about how overwhelmed and honored she felt to share such a prestigious platform with the megastar. Joining her on this special episode was Prasoon Joshi.
She said, "Bahut accha lag raha hai, mujhe lagta hai bahut saare logo ka dream hota hain ek baar hot seat par baithna, aur mere liye to bass. (Amitabh Bachchan) Sir ke saamne hona hi bahut badi baat hai, toh mai bahut bhagyashali samjahti hu ki ek baar yeh mauka hume sath milpaya woh bhi KBC par (It feels amazing! I think sitting on the hot seat once is a dream for so many people, and for me... just being in front of Sir is a huge deal. So I consider myself extremely fortunate that we got this opportunity together, and that too on KBC)".
Earlier, on the show, Amitabh Bachchan recollected an incident when actor Sunny Deol tore his jeans during the briefing of a scene.
The veteran actor told Sunny, "I heard one thing once. You were shooting on a set. It was an action sequence. The action director was telling that Sunny was standing and he put his hand in his pocket. And he was listening to what was happening".
"And he doesn't agree with what he is being told. He doesn't want to do anything. He didn't agree at all. After a while, there was a sound of a cloth being torn. He was so angry. He pressed it so hard. He couldn't take it out. He was feeling shy. But he doesn't have any shame in his hands", he added.
'Kaun Banega Crorepati' airs on Sony Entertainment Television.

Honestly, KBC has always been more about Big B's storytelling than the questions sometimes! That Sunny Deol story is hilarious 😂 - imagine tearing your own jeans in anger and not being able to take your hand out. Classic! Sunidhi's dedication to music is inspiring though, glad she's getting this recognition.
Sunidhi's voice has been part of our lives for decades - from "Ruki Ruki" to "Desi Girl"! She deserves every bit of this honor. And with Prasoon Joshi on the same stage, that episode must have had some beautiful poetry and music discussions. Wish they showed more of that!
I've watched KBC a few times while visiting India - it's amazing how Amitabh Bachchan connects with every guest. This episode sounds special with Sunidhi and Prasoon Joshi. Great to see artists being celebrated beyond their primary craft!
One thing I wish is that they'd focus more on the contestant stories rather than celebrity episodes, especially for the special ones. But having said that, Sunidhi's humility is refreshing. "Sir ke saamne hona hi badi baat hai" - this is what makes our stars so relatable! 🌟
The Sunny Deol anecdote is pure gold 🤣 Big B's way of narrating stories is unmatched - he turns even a simple incident into a cinematic moment. As for Sunidhi, she's a legend in her own right. Two generations of Indian entertainment on one stage - that's what KBC does best!
