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.”
