Jaya Bachchan and Amitabh Bachchan
Jaya Bachchan encouraged Amitabh Bachchan during the first season of Kaun Banega Carorepati (KBC).
Amitabh Bachchan, who is about to return as the anchor of Kaun Banega Carorepati says that when he first host the show way back in the year 2000, he got a lot of encouragement from Jaya Bachchan, who really praised the show after watching the first episode.
Since he was a totally new to the world of Television when he first host the show and the concept of Kaun Banega Carorepati was also new for the Indian Television audiences, Mr. Bachchan was quite nervous when the first episode of the show was to go on air.
Recalling the day when the first episode of the show was to go on air, Mr. Bachchan recently wrote on his blog that he was so scared that he completely isolated himself at the time of the show. Mr Bachchan wrote "I was scared and nervous because I had no idea what the public would have to say about the show, about my involvement and its eventual result."
Though, M r. Bachchan did watch the episode, he wrote that instead of sitting with the family, he locked himself in his office and watched it all alone because he did not want his family to know that he was watching the show.
Mr. Bachchan further wrote that the one hour when the show was on, seemed to be very long for him, as he wanted the episode to end quickly so that he could get people’s reaction about the show.
The first reaction, when Mr. Bachchan came out of his office after the episode got over came from his wife Jaya, who said the show was a hit and she loved it.
It was Jaya’s encouragement that made Mr. Bachchan put in that extra effort in later episodes. The result is well-known to everyone as the show helped Mr. Bachchan come out of the huge financial crises he was facing at that point of time.
