The Bollywood superstar will be back on Star Plus to host 'Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain?' a show that will have adult contestants testing their wits with a group of sprightly 10-year-olds.
The prize money this time is Rs 5 crores, a Star Group press release said here. Khan had earlier hosted Kaun Banega Crorepati, with a Rs 2 crore prize money, on Star Plus.
The release, however, did not mention the start date of the new game show that will be beamed once a week.
Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain? is a television game show based on the international Mark Burnett format 'Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?' where grade-school level questions are put to adults from all walks of life, well heeled and confident, who attempt to relive their student days with success.
The release said the essence of the show is the test that adults will be put to -- answer primary school questions, the pressure of going back to school and keeping their reputations intact.
