Amitabh Bachchan Injures Knee During KBC 18 Shoot, Hosts While SeatedPreviousNext

During a recent shoot of Kaun Banega Crorepati 18, Amitabh Bachchan slipped and injured his left knee, causing some difficulty in standing. He chose to sit during the opening monologue but reassured the audience that the injury was not severe and that he would stand to host the contestants. The audience wished him a speedy recovery. The episode also featured contestant Shourjya Das, who quit the game at the Rs 50 lakh question, correctly guessing the answer after leaving.
