SLUMDOG MILLINIORE MOVIE BECOMES TRUE


Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC 5) has given Rs five crore, its biggest prize so far. The boy from Bihar has still to come out of shock following this huge reward, says S Ahmed ofNVONews.Com
Patna/ Motihari: First the news. A computer operator Sushil Kumar working earning Rupees Six Thousand per month from MNREGA office near Motihari and who couldnt even spend his day in entertainment have now become a crorepathi, he used to teach tutors in the part time to spend money. Bihar has won the biggest ever television show’s prize money of Rupees Five Crore. The world would be watching the show ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ or KBC 5 on the 2nd of November hosted by the Superstar Amitabh Bachchan.
Though everybody is talking about the determination of Sushil but he was a very poor student and could not pass his matriculation exams in his first attempt. Aged 27-year and having a postgraduate degree in psychology Sushil needed to answer correctly thirteen questions in all. Thirteen questions with a few help lines like phone a friend, audience, expert and fifty-fifty it is really not such a big deal. Getting a call for the show is all important which is purely dependent on your luck and the number of sms and phone calls. This show leaves innumerable people agitated as they never get a call even after so many attempts.
The world knew it days before the show’s scheduled telecast though the show was originally recorded on the 25th of October. The world knew it early because the tv channel telecasting it, the Sony Entertainment Telvision’ has great stake in it though it did not want the Jackpot question to be disclosed which is related to Andaman and Nikobar islands.
If the media glitz is put aside public in general ask questions the usefulness of such programmes. Yes, for entertainment it is good. The host is unparallel. The script is tremendous. But no one is sure about participating in it as it takes innumerable sms and phone calls as only a handful is invited.
Amitabh Bachchan and Five Crore Rupees is such a big thing that anybody would pause a while before making any comments but the fact remains that such shows are not as simple as Sushil Kumar is. Harshwardhan Navathe of Mumbai was the first participant to return home as a crorepati.
Interestingly when the show was added a Rupees Five Crore Jackpot question, Rahat Taslim of Giridih, Jharkhand quit after winning Rupees One crore in 2010. This show also reminds the much talked about film ‘Slumdog Millionaire’.
Mr. Amitabh says that if a person is determined to achieve something he could easily do that as Sushil Kumar coming from a very humble background has done it. But the question that Amitabh does not answer is that why only a few have achieved that? In a country of over a billion people KBC could not produce more than a few winners of Rupees One crore or more? Why so many people are not able to get even a chance to get to the initial level?
For many Five Crore Rupees is not an inspiration, it is just Five Crore Daydreams.
Reportedly this show is being watched by around five million people but only a few have won Rupees One Crore or more. Interestingly the celebrity participants like Aamir Khan, Shahrukh Khan and Joh Abrahm etc. always return big winning amount while common participant very rarely go above a lakh. But more than the prize money it is the prime time advertisement and sms charges which contribute to the immense profit of the tv channel telecasting it.
Based on the UK game show ‘Who Wants to be A Millionaire’ the KBC show was first aired in the year 2000 hosted by Amitabh Bacchan. Apart from providing entertainment to the viewers and big money to the participants, it boosted the TRP of Stat Television then. In 2001 there were KBC Junior and KBC Jodi but those could not be very popular.
After four years the show had its second edition as KBC Dwitiya doubling the prize money to Rupees two crore
As Amitabh Bachchan fell ill, Star Television hired the Badshah of Bollywood Mr. Shahrukh Khan as the host of KBC3 while the prize money remained Rupees Two Crore. This show was not considered as big hit as it was during when Amibath Bachchan was the host. The sponsors Air Tel, Unit Trust of India and ITC ltd. were reported not to be very keen on continuing this show. So, the show ended in just three months.
It again started as KBC 4 with its original host Mr. Amitabh Bachchan in 2010 but the prize money was added with a jackpot of Rupees Five crore.
