Kaun Banega Crorepati 15: In the most recent episode of 'KBC 15', contestant Saurabh Sengupta from Durg, Chhattisgarh, unveiled a touching dream inspired by none other than the iconic host himself, Amitabh Bachchan.
The special 'KBC Play Along' episode featured Saurabh, a Finance Executive, who seized the coveted hot seat. As Amitabh welcomed him, curiosity swirled around the life-changing dream Saurabh held close to his heart.
AMITABH AS INSPIRATION TO HIS ROMANTIC ASPIRATIONS
With a sparkle in his eyes, Saurabh shared, “I have an affinity for cooking; it's a beloved hobby of mine. My dream is to open my own restaurant. But there's another dream that's been quietly flourishing within me – taking my girlfriend on a romantic Gondola ride in Venice.”
Amitabh Bachchan's trademark exclamation, "Ohhh hooo," echoed the collective sentiment of the audience. Saurabh confessed, “Sir, you are the inspiration behind this romantic aspiration of mine.”
Amidst chuckles, Amitabh responded, “I understand. Just make sure to serenade your girlfriend and not mistake her for Zeenat Aman. You wouldn't want any mix-ups there.”
GONDOLA RIDE IN VENICE & AMITABH-ZEENAT CONNECT
For those unfamiliar, Saurabh's dream was intricately linked to a vintage moment in Amitabh Bachchan's filmography. The contestant referenced Amitabh's 1979 crime-action film 'The Great Gambler,' directed by Shakti Samanta.
The film's narrative delved into international intrigue, featuring Amitabh in a double role alongside the enchanting Zeenat Aman. The iconic song 'Do Lafzon Ki Hai Dil Ki Kahani' was shot on a Gondola gliding through Venice's Grand Canal, a scene that etched its place in Bollywood history.
