The popular quiz show Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 continues to engage audiences, with contestants sharing heartwarming stories and winning big. In the latest episode, Prashant Jamdade, a contestant from Sangli, Maharashtra, sat on the hot seat and impressed viewers with his resilience and determination despite facing physical challenges.
Overcoming Challenges to Win Rs 25 Lakh
Prashant, who hails from a small town, shared his touching story about how his grandfather played a crucial role in his upbringing. His grandfather had once advised him not to rely on crutches or a wheelchair, encouraging him to be independent. This advice stayed with Prashant and helped him face life’s challenges head-on.
Amitabh Bachchan praised Prashant’s courage, noting how his spirit had brought him to the hot seat of Kaun Banega Crorepati. In the game, Prashant answered several questions correctly, using a lifeline to navigate through the Rs 80,000 question.
What Prashant Plans to Do With His Prize Money
Prashant shared that the prize money would be his first major income and is crucial for him and his family. He plans to use the Rs 25 lakh he won for multiple purposes, including his leg treatment, repaying his father’s debts, funding his sister’s wedding, and supporting his younger brother’s education. His story touched the hearts of both the audience and the show’s host.
The Rs 50 Lakh Question That Stopped Prashant
As the game progressed, Prashant reached the Rs 50 lakh question. The question was, “Wellness coach Vinay Menon has worked for the Belgium national team in the World Cup, and with which English football club?”
Prashant did not know the answer and decided to leave the game. Before exiting, he took a guess, choosing Manchester United as his answer. However, the correct answer was Chelsea. Despite not winning the Rs 50 lakh prize, Prashant walked away with Rs 25 lakh, a significant amount that will help him achieve his goals.
A Contestant Who Won Hearts
Though Prashant didn’t make it to the Rs 50 lakh mark, his story and determination left a lasting impression. Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 continues to showcase inspiring contestants like Prashant, who not only win money but also win the hearts of millions. The show airs on Sony TV every Saturday and Sunday at 9 PM.
