IS KBC Rigged

KBC LOGO

KBC has been a very popular Sony TV venture and coming into the season 3, there has been a lot of expectations from the viewers. Amitabh Bachhan has also been very impressive in his interaction and viewers have always been delighted. But all that was only to with the star cast including a few celebrities called as a star cast and a few more for the promotion of the movies. All is well. Or is it so. People are winning good money here. Or are they give a well written script ? Well after what has happened in the latest episode of KBC confirms our doubts. Maybe the script had a few errors.

PRASHANT BATAR who is himself an actor and says was called stupid by his friends was not so stupid after all. He went on to answer most of the questions upto 50 lakhs. Alright now comes the funny part.

On the 1 crore question BATAR uses 2 lifelines, a) Phone a friend 2) Audience pole leaving the double dip to give a double climax for the audience who are already fed up of the repeated telecast. The question a) Who is the 1st President of the country among the choices given? Well surprising to say the least the answer was given correctly by Batar who said he had some faint idea about a recent political change in Nepal. Well as per Amitabh recent meant as old as 2008 . The double dip as obvious on the 5 crore question went against the contestant. You really cant expect to be paid 5 crore for a small play in KBC(Good acting Batar). 

3,20,000 is a little less I feel for a drama that lasted for 5 days. All the sensation had been created to make the TRP as high as possible. Maybe SONY has succeeded in this. But the show has lost its credibility.
