Article~*~MUST READ- The week that was...

KBClive rounds up all the action from week six.

KBC this week was filled with colour and whole lot of Indian sweets as it was time to celebrate Holi. The first contestant to celebrate Holi with SRK on the Hot Seat was Nitesh Ukaani from Gujarat. He also tries to convince Khan to become a brand ambassador for his three wheeler vehicle. Carrying a card from his kids for Shah Rukh, the business man won big and took home 6, 40,000 rupees.

Next on the hot seat was Deepak Jain. Looks like Khan impressed yet another teacher as Deepak gave a message out on the show to all the children all over the world to emulate their favourite star and try to achieve all the success the host has through all his hard work. At times, Deepak was quite indecisive and nervous. He even took back one of his lifelines when the person he wanted to speak to didn't answer the phone and used it at a later time. However, at the end of his game he too like his predecessor won himself 6, 40,000 rupees.

Deepak's exit bought 6foot 3inches tall Ram Gopalkrishnan from Hyderabad onto the Hot Seat. Sharing some jokes about their height difference, Ram and Shah Rukh shared great camaraderie and both seemed to be having great fun with each other. However, all the fun and jokes didn't stop Ram from winning. By the time it was time for him to exit the game, he had won 6, 40,000 just like the other two contestants of the week.

Next to sit opposite SRK was Rakshit from Gujarat who was recovering from a leg injury. Quite impressed with the way Rakshit was playing, Shah Rukh kept offering him sweets. And in the midst of all that banter, Rakshit reached 12, 50,000 rupees before he left the game. The next was Manish Singh who barely made it to the Hot Seat before it was time to close play for the day. Sadly for him his next claim on the prize money was to resume only on Monday next week as Thursday evening belonged to Rani and Preity who were celebrating the Holi Special on the show.

Looking beautiful the two actresses joined, Shah Rukh on Thursday evening to celebrate Holi on KBC. From discussing what kind of life partners they were looking for to dancing on the sets and answering some questions in between, everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. And before we all knew it, the duo had won 50 lakhs!

Now the wait is for Monday night, when Manish will sit opposite SRK and hope to be the first player to win the 2 crores that is waiting for him!
