- Rupabhai Hadiyal says he'll use the prize money to build toilets

Amitabh Bachchan continued the eighth episode of popular quiz show
Kaun Banega Crorepati with Tausif Ali Sayyad. He answered the first question of the day after using a lifeline (phone a friend) but continued till the question #NUMBER seamlessly. He used two lifelines on question #9 before getting to the game's second milestone - question #10 - securing a minimum win of Rs 3,60,000. The audience applauded for Tausif Ali Sayyad as he collected the prize money cheque from Mr Bachchan. Tausif had earlier told the audience and Big B that he had many loans to repay. Tausif Ali Sayyad's journey ended on question #11, which took the game back to the Fastest Finger First round.
Rupabhai Hadiyal, a farmer from Gujarat, was the second contestant to sit on the hot seat on Wednesday night. Mr Hadiyal wanted to sit on quizmaster Amitabh Bachchan's seat on the sets of
KBC and Big B obliged. One question later, Big B and Mr Hadiyal swapped their seats and came to their allocated spots. Rupabhai Hadiyal was a talkative and feisty contestant. He talked to Mr Bachchan on many topics (mostly about his marriage) which had the audience and the host in splits. In fact, to him, the
KBC theme sounded like wedding bells. After winning Rs 40,000, Rupabhai Hadiyal said that he wants to build a toilet in his home with the prize money. Rupabhai Hadiyal also pledged half of his winnings for his sister's education.
