shahrukh to host KBC

may not be relevant to srgmp forum..but i believe that shahrukh khan has SRGMP to thank for..remember how the Trps jumped on the finale nightjustto get a glimpse of khan-more than star+ SBKBT..star bosses knew immediately where their money and TRPs are going to come from..

Delhi: Fans of popular game show Kaun Banega Crorepati are in for a big treat as the makers of the show have found a new replacement for superstar host Amitabh Bachchan.

None other than Shah Rukh Khan will get into the Big B's shoes this time around. Star TV's money-spinner show is expected to be back on the small screen in March next year.

"I was pleasantly surprised when STAR offered me the show. I was a participant in season one of KBC and little did I know one day I would be hosting it," Shah Rukh says.

"It is a huge act to follow, that of Mr Bachchan but it also excites me that I am getting an opportunity to reach out, talk and interact with my audience through a medium where I began my career as an actor years ago," Shah Rukh adds.

Bachchan had recently said in an interview that the modalities for the third run of the show were being worked out with the channel. But it seems the makers had a bigger surprise in store for the audience.

Kaun Banega Crorepati, which is loosely based on the famous UK game show Who Wants To Be a Millionaire, was first aired in 2000. The show was revived four years later as Kaun Banega Crorepati Dwitiya in which the prize money was also doubled to Rs 2 crore.

But the second run of the show was short-lived as Bachchan fell ill. Now it seems Star TV is all set to revive the show with an eye on the TRPs that the show had once managed to garner. And as far Shah Rukh's brand value is concerned, Star has struck gold.

"We are extremely delighted to announce the Next Generation avatar of KBC and are even more pleased to present Shah Rukh Khan, as its host. We promise to engage and deliver to our audiences a whole new entertainment experience," CEO, Star Entertainment India, Sameer Nair says.

So, post-Don, get ready for another Big B versus

Ron, I wholeheartedly agree with you.👏 👏Sharukh did not have much to do with the ratings of the Grand Finale, 😆It was our Chota Don Sameer,👏 he is the one who rocked the crowd with his awesome stage performances,👏 without him, Delhi and Benares would not have been so exciting,his energy for an 11 yr old was awesome,👏his magic 👏and interaction with the audience was natural, 👏and the audience watched the Grand Finale to see more of him.👏 all the shows would have been lifeless otherewise. Maybe, they should do a poll in India to find out why so many people watched the Grand Finale and the other 2 concerts. 👏

you maybe right!!
