Everyone's favourite quiz master Amitabh Bachchan is set to return with the iconic game show—Kaun Banega Crorepati. The 17th edition of the show, which premieres on Monday, Aug. 11, has whipped up excitement among fans, eagerly looking forward to hearing Big B's familiar baritone once again as he greets guests with his trademark deviyon aur sajjano. 

In a statement, Amitabh Bachchan opened up about the quiz show and thanked the audience for their love and support.

He said, "Kaun Banega Crorepati is far more than a game show, it’s a collective journey of hopes and dreams, with millions cheering every contestant in the hot seat. For me, hosting KBC is like sitting among my own extended family, staying connected to your love and warmth. As the new season begins, I find myself short of words because no words can truly match the depth of my gratitude. Your blessings brought new life to KBC, lit up this stage once more, and brought us all back together. This platform, this game, this season — they belong to you. In honour of your affection, I promise to give double the effort."

Kaun Banega Crorepati 17 will premiere on Aug.11 at 9 pm. The show will air from Monday to Friday. Fans can watch the show on SonyLiv. 

Kaun Banega Crorepati 17, hosted by Amitabh Bachchan, can be watched on the Sony channel. 

The new season is set to feature not only new contestants and challenging questions, but also special surprises in celebration of the show’s 25-year journey, the makers said in a statement last week.

'With a new season and the legendary host at the helm, KBC 17 promises to be one of the most sought after shows on Indian television. The opening episode will not only present some new announcements but also brings with it a fresh wave of excitement,' it added.

The cinema icon has hosted KBC since its inaugural season in 2000, except the third chapter in 2007, which was hosted by superstar Shah Rukh Khan.
