'Kaun Banega Crorepati' is counted among the most favorite reality shows on TV. In this show people get to know the basics of general knowledge and you get to learn something from the show. However, since the show has been mired in controversies due to the recent episode, the reason behind it is a question.
A controversy arose because of a question In the new episode of KBC Season 16, Varun Dhawan and director duo Raj and DK came to promote their upcoming web series 'Citadel: Honey Bunny'. On the show's stage, host Amitabh Bachchan asked Varun and Raj and DK a history question that has caused controversy.
What was the question? Which actress died tragically in a plane crash along with her husband and Maharaja Hanwant Singh of Jodhpur? The options were- A-Sulochana B-Mumtaz C- Nadira D- Zubaidah
Amitabh Bachchan made a mistake! Varun Dhawan and Raj & DK used two lifelines to lock in the Zubaidah option. Then Amitabh Bachchan narrated the history of Zubaidah. Amitabh said Zubaida acted in India's first talking film 'Alam Ara' and was inspired by the Bollywood film 'Zubaida' starring Karisma Kapoor, Rekha and Manoj Bajpayee.
The son asked for an explanation Zubaidah's son Khalid Mohammad got angry at this. Many Twitter users also pointed out this mistake and said that there were two Zubaidahs, one was the actress of 'Alam Ara' and the other was the wife of Maharaja Hanwant Singh. Meanwhile, Zubaida's son Khalid Mohammad also noticed this. Not only this, Zubaida's son Khalid Mohammad has sought clarification from KBC through a post.
Zubaidah's son asked for forgiveness According to 'Indian Express', Mohammed has expressed anger at the makers and wrote on his X account, 'KBC and Amitabh Bachchan. This is my late mother Zubaida Begum. He was not even born when 'Alam Ara' became. At least you can apologize at the event for the mistake. But you know right? I don't expect that.
