Jaskaran Singh created history
Jaskaran Singh, a 21-year-old student from Punjab, created history as he became the first crorepati on Amitabh Bachchan’s game show, Kaun Banega Crorepati 15. He attempted ₹7 crore question but decided to quit and took home ₹1 crore. The question was related to the Padma Purana, and the question was “According to Padma Purana, which king had to live as a tiger for a hundred years due to a deer’s curse?”
The options include – A: Kshemadhurti, B: Dharmadatta, C: Mitadhvaja and D: Prabhanjana, and the correct answer was “D: Prabhanjana.”
For the ₹1 crore question, Jaskaran used the double-dip lifeline and received a warm hug from Amitabh Bachchan when he answered correctly.
