Amitabh Bachchan is back as the host for the 11th season of Kaun Banega Crorepati and so are his many anecdotes. On Monday's episode, Big B shared a behind-the-scenes story from his 2000 film Mohabbatein, in which he played a stringent headmaster of a prestigious institution. Talking to contestant Aseem Chaudhary from Indore, Big B jokingly referred to himself as he said the film had a veteran actor: "Ek vriddh tha - naam bhul rahe hain unka...", when he was asked by the contestant if he's as strict in real life as well. That's when Big B took a trip down the memory lane and said the film was shot somewhere near London under freezing temperatures.
Amitabh Bachchan revealed he used to seek refuge behind huge generator fans on the sets to warm himself up in between shots: "London ke pass shooting ho rahi thi aur itni sardi hoti thi... kapte hue dialogue nikalte the. Generator ke pankhe ke peeche jaake khade ho jaate the."
Directed by Aditya Chopra, Mohabbatein featured an ensemble cast also comprising Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Uday Chopra, Jugal Hansraj, Jimmy Shergill, Shamita Shetty, Kim Sharma, Preeti Jhangiani and others.
Aseem Chaudhary went home with a prize money of Rs 12,50,000 after he decided to quit the game. The second contestant on Monday's episode was Sanya Chakravarty, who will continue the game on Tuesday.
