“As long as one is alive, the struggle also goes on and issi sunghursh mein hum hamesha addey rahenge ,” insists superstar and fabulous TV host Amitabh Bachchan whose popular quiz-game-show ‘KBC’ Kaun Banega Crorepati, in its 11th season starts airing tonight and on weekdays on Sony TV at 9pm. The unassuming ‘Piku’ par excellence actor. whose grumpy, buzurg Lucknowi look-get-up from ‘upcoming movie ‘Gulabo Sitabo’ directed by Shoojit Sircar has fascinated all Bollywood-buffs, has always been re-inventing himself on-screen. “ Even our show KBC is constantly innovating and re-inventing itself.. This time they have introduced the ‘Flip-The-Question’ where one gets to choose from a wide variety of 11 subjects options. The computer designs and present the questions which in turn makes the game very ‘contestant friendly’. The technical crew has now added this remote-controlled ‘buggy camera’ that will roam on the studio floor and capture some low-angle amazing candid expressions, reactions and moments, “ reveals the Big B. The unassuming versatile actor who continues to be an inspiration is humility personified when he shrugs of his greatness. “Frankly, I don’t think I am an inspiration. Inspiration comes from achievements of the ‘Karamveer KBC’ contestants and the brave rebel female contestants who have defied social constraints to participate in KBC and fulfill their life’s mission,” counters the articulate Bachchan whose mantra for being benevolent is “when you give out charity, do not publicize it, it’s meant to be discreet” Considering his star-son Abhishek plays the lead in Amazon prime web-series ‘Breathe season 2’ , would the senior Bachchan also be game to foray into the digital zone ? “Definitely, I would love to act in a web-series, if the offer is right and role is good enough,. There are some engaging quality web-series being made locally and by international production houses,” he responds.
