Amitabh Bachchan Will Start Shooting For Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 9 In August

Amitabh Bachchan sent his fans into a tizzy when he hinted at his return to the small screen as the host of Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 9. That was December 2016. And now, it’s happening.

SpotboyE.com was at Film City when we saw a lot of hustle bustle on a new set which was being erected. We snooped around and found out that it was the set for Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 9.

SpotboyE.com can also tell you that the show runners will have to be on their toes this time because they will be on a tight schedule.

Bachchan has given 17 days to the show so far, 10 days in August and seven days in September.

This means that either they will have to shoot 30 episodes in 17 days or Bachchan will have to allocate more days to Kaun Banega Crorepati.

When Kaun Banega Crorepati first started airing in the year 2000, the whole nation turned towards the small screen at 9pm sharp--just to get a glimpse of the legend that is Amitabh Bachchan.

After the frenzy created by mythological dramas like Ramayana and Mahabharat, this was the first time that a show had become appointment viewing for the country.

That has been the kind of magic the Indian megastar managed to weave on television. But the show has had quite long breaks between seasons. The last season was aired in 2014, and we have missed the game show, and its inimitable host.

And now Bachchan will be back with a bang!
