Chander Prakash, a contestant on the quiz show Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) in Season 16, became the show’s first crorepati. Sony Entertainment Television posted videos on Instagram on Wednesday while KBC host Amitabh Bachchan praised Chander.
Chander Prakash Becomes First Crorepati Of KBC 16 !
Amitabh yelled “1 crore” while standing in front of the audience in the video. Chander received a round of applause from the crowd. Amitabh then gave him a hug and said, “Gale lagjaiyye aap humare (let’s hug).” The video was captioned “Iss season ke pehle Crorepati, Chander Parkash ko hum sab ki ore se hardik shubhkaamnaye” (This season’s first crorepati, best wishes to Chander Parkash from us)” when it was uploaded to YouTube.
What Was Rs. 1 Crore Question?
Let’s look at the question for one crore, which made Chander the first crorepati of KBC 16. The question was, “Which country’s largest city is not its capital but rather a port with the Arabic name “abode of peace”?” The choices included: A) Oman, B) Tanzania, C) Brunei, and D) Somalia. Chander gave the correct response, Tanzania, after utilizing the “Double Dip” lifeline.
What was Rs. 7th Crore Question?
The host then posed the 7 crore question to Chander. The question was, in 1587, who was the first known child born to English parents in North America? Chander left the show because he didn’t know the answer and had used up all of his lifelines. Chander selected option A) Virginia Dare, which was the correct response, when Amitabh asked Chander to guess.
Who is Chander Prakash ?
Times of India reported that the 22-year-old Jammu and Kashmiri is a UPSC aspirant. Chander had previously revealed on the show that he has faced numerous health challenges throughout his life. There was a blockage in his intestine when he was born. He has had seven surgeries so far. However, doctors have asked him to have his eighth surgery because he still has intestinal issues.
