Mumbai, India - In an upcoming episode of "Kaun Banega Crorepati 16", host Amitabh Bachchan shared a candid reflection on his early days of struggle, leaving viewers impressed with his humility and determination.

The Bollywood legend reminisced about his beginnings, walking long distances to reach job interviews and struggling to make ends meet. In an emotional monologue, Bachchan revealed, "I never imagined this house (Jalsa) would one day be mine!" This sentiment echoed Nishant Jaiswal's aspirations, as the Chhattisgarh-based artisan on the show shared his own struggles to achieve his dreams.

Nishant, who is dedicated to the intricate craft of silk-making from cocoons and an aspiring IPS officer, had faced rejection multiple times before being selected for "KBC". The contestant recounted a heartwarming moment where he stood outside Bachchan's residence with an empty bag, silently praying to be chosen. This touching story moved the legendary actor, who responded with a heartfelt connection.

"I also learned the roads by walking," Bachchan said, highlighting how his journey to success was built on hard work and perseverance. "It’s not like I’ve only travelled by car. You at least had a bag; I didn’t even have that." This anecdote gave viewers an insight into the 'Sholay' actor's humble beginnings.

Bachchan's reflection on his early struggles served as a perfect segue to Nishant's personal story, sparking an inspiring conversation about resilience and determination.
