The 12th season of the TV show 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' has started from today. Amitabh Bachchan has been associated with the show for the last 20 years and viewers also like Big B very much. The way Big B associates himself with all the contestants appearing on the show, hardly anyone can host them. Perhaps this is the reason why viewers love both KBC and Amitabh Bachchan immensely.

According to media reports, Amitabh Bachchan had a debt of Rs 90 crore before becoming a part of the show. Then the show came into Big B's life like an angel and everything changed. The show played an important role to get Amitabh out of debt. According to media reports, in an interview, Amitabh Bachchan while talking about 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' said that 'I got this show at a time when I needed it very much. Financially, the show acted like a catalyst professionally. Believe me, this show helped me a lot in paying the creditors. ' According to sources, for the first season of 'KBC', Amitabh Bachchan received a fee of around 15 crores for 85 episodes.

However when Amitabh got the offer of 'KBC', his family and he himself were not in favor of working on the small screen. To convince Amitabh, the makers of 'KBC' took him to the set of its original version 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire' in London. Big B liked it a lot, but he placed a bet in front of the makers that the Hindi version of this show should be made in the same way only then he will host it. At the same time, it has been learned that Amitabh started his company ABCL in the year 1995. But it was low in profit and high in losses. Under the banner of this company, many films like 'Mortyudata' were made and all of them flopped and the company kept going into losses. The company had become so much in debt that in 1999, it came to light that Amitabh did not have enough money to pay the staff. To emerge from the situation where Big B mortgaged his bungalow 'Pratiksha'. Amitabh told in one of his interviews that- 'I could not sleep, it seemed that the sword is hanging on my head. One morning I went to Yash Chopra ji and said I have gone bankrupt. I have my house and a small property left in Delhi. After listening to me, Yash ji gave me the role in 'Mohabbatein'. Then by doing many ad films, films and TV shows, I was able to repay my debt of 90 crores.
