Bachchan Opens Up About Grind Days Before Sharing Heartfelt Connection with Contestant Nishant Jaiswal on KBC 16
Mumbai, Dec 2023: Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan brought back nostalgic memories of his early days in the entertainment industry during an upcoming episode of "Kaun Banega Crorepati 16". The actor, who has been hosting the show for several years, shared a candid account of his struggles to make it big in the industry.
Bachchan reminisced about walking long distances from the Vile Parle station to his old home, often without resources, and how he used to carry every item by hand. He also recalled not having anything more than the clothes on his back when looking for jobs.
Sharing a touching story, Nishant Jaiswal, a Chhattisgarh-based artisan and aspiring IPS officer, revealed that he had attempted to audition multiple times but never secured a spot in "KBC" despite his unwavering efforts. However, what tugged at Bachchan's heart was the small bag Nishant used to carry the day before walking from the station to the Jalsa mansion – a clear reflection of their shared struggles.
Bachchan reflected on his own early grind days and how resilience helped him reach where he is today. Addressing Nishant’s aspirations, he highlighted that one must trust themselves despite setbacks and never give up on any dreams.
As part of promotional activities for his new film "I Want To Talk", Abhishek Bachchan recently appeared as a guest on the popular show to share with audiences what drives him in life. The recent development serves as an inspiration to Nishant and every contestant competing in the upcoming episodes of "KBC 16".
Sony Entertainment Television airs brand-new episodes of "KBC 16" from Monday onwards.
