Amitabh Bachchan faced a contestant named Jaya on his show, Kaun Banega Crorepati, season 16 (available for streaming on SonyLIV at 9 pm Monday-Friday via OTTplay Premium). The episode took place last night and their interaction became a memorable moment on the show. The actor, who is already married to Jaya (Bachchan, actor-politician who last appeared in Ranveer Singh-Alia Bhatt’s Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani), was faced with a request - to call the contestant by his wife's name. Big B's reaction to being asked to do so is epic.

Amitabh Bachchan's reaction

The contestant from Gujarat reminded Amitabh Bachchan of her name (despite her introduction) and how he would call his wife Jaya ji every day. Taking the opportunity to be on the hot seat with him, the contestant Jaya requested the host to call her Jaya ji. On hearing that, Big B said that he has been calling the contestant Jaya ji ever since they are on the hot seat. "Zara sochiye devi ji, jab tak aap khelte rahenge, tab tak humein apna ghar yaad aata rahega (please imagine, ma’am, I will be reminded of my home and wife till the time you are in the game)," he told Jaya.
