Mumbai, Nov 18 : Actor Manoj Bajpayee’s recent appearance on Kaun Banega Crorepati 17 turned into a heartfelt and entertaining reunion as his The Family Man 3 co-stars Jaideep Ahlawat and Sharib Hashmi joined him on the show. The newly released promo captures the trio’s natural camaraderie and playful banter, with host Amitabh Bachchan adding his trademark wit to the lively atmosphere.
One standout moment came when Bajpayee recalled an incident from the sets of the 2011 film Aarakshan. During a break, he had been casually reciting lines from Harivansh Rai Bachchan’s iconic poem “Jo Beet Gayi So Baat Gayi”. Unbeknownst to him, Amitabh Bachchan was standing nearby. The actor fondly remembered how Big B gently corrected him and asked him to recite the poem properly a moment that left him both nervous and thrilled.
On the KBC stage, Bajpayee requested Amitabh Bachchan to recite the verses once again. The megastar obliged, delivering the lines in his deep, resonant voice. The studio audience fell silent as he spoke:
“Jo beet gayi so baat gayi…
Jeevan mein ek sitara tha…
…Jo beet gayi so baat gayi.”
KBC makers shared the promo on Instagram, urging viewers to catch the emotional yet entertaining episode airing on weekdays at 9 pm on Sony Entertainment Television and Sony LIV.
The episode also featured lighter moments. In a previously shared clip, Manoj Bajpayee recreated Amitabh Bachchan’s iconic Deewaar dialogue with a hilarious Bhojpuri twist, leaving everyone in splits. Matching the energy, Amitabh responded with his own Bhojpuri version of another classic line, adding to the fun.
The episode promises a mix of nostalgia, humour, and heartfelt memories — all tied beautifully together through the timeless words of “Jo Beet Gayi So Baat Gayi.”
