Although
Kaun
Banega
Crorepati
12
couldn't
make
it
to
top
five
spot
on
TRP
chart,
the
popular
game
reality
show
has
been
grabbing
the
headlines,
especially
regarding
the
question
that
host
Amitabh
Bachchan
asks
to
the
contestants.
Recently,
filmmaker
Hansal
Mehta
was
elated
after
he
saw
his
name
pop
up
on
the
screen
of
the
show!
The
question
was
about
the
filmmaker
and
his
critically
acclaimed
films.
On
Thursday's
episode,
Big
B
asked
contestant
Anu
Chauhan,
"Shahid,
Aligarh
and
Omerta
are
notable
films
by
which
director?" And
the
options
were:
A.
Hansal
Mehta
B.
Ketan
Mehta
C.
Anees
Bazmee
and
D.
Apporva
Lakhia.
Hansal
Mehta
shared
the
screenshot
of
the
question
and
wrote,
"And
this
happened..."
When
a
journalist
joked
and
tweeted,
"I'd
say
option
C
😅,"
Hansal
responded,
"That
would
be
interesting!"
Last
year,
on
Twitter,
Hansal
had
shared
about
his
first
encounter
with
Amitabh
Bachchan.
He
had
tweeted,
"I'd
just
begun
my
career
and
had
dropped
off
a
letter
to
Mr.
Bachchan's
bungalow
(with
security).
The
next
morning
at
around
8
am
my
mother
comes
to
the
room
and
says
that
there
is
a
call
for
me
from
Amitabh.
My
assistant
editor
at
that
time
was
Amitabh
Verma.
I
pick
up
and
say
'Bol
Amitabh'.
Reply
is
'Main
Amitabh
Bachchan
bol
raha
hu'."
Meanwhile,
Hansal's
web
series
The
Scam
1992
has
garnered
critical
acclaim
and
got
good
responses
from
audiences.
In
fact,
it
is
one
of
the
most
searched
web
series
of
2020
on
Google.
