Kaun
Banega
Crorepati
is
all
set
to
return
with
its
14th
season
on
Sony
Entertainment
Televison.
The
popular
quiz-based
game
show
will
premiere
on
August
7
at
9
pm.
Ahead
of
the
show’s
grand
launch,
director
Arun
Sheshkumar
opened
up
about
working
with
Amitabh
Bachchan
and
the
changes
made
in
the
new
season.
Arun
told
IANS,
"The
beauty
of
'KBC'
is
that
this
is
one
show
where
your
talent
is
your
knowledge.
Your
talent
is
your
luck.
You
don't
need
to
know
dancing
or
singing
or
any
kind
of
an
extra
co-curricular
talent
per
se.
What
you
have
studied
or
what
you
are
reading
is
what
you
are
bringing
onto
the
show
as
your
experience
and
your
personal
life."
Speaking
about
its
host,
the
director
added,
"Mr.
Bachchan
is
the
pivotal
point
of
the
show
and
he
is
a
conductor,
as
we
call
it.
He
is
the
man
who
is
running
this
whole
orchestra
called
'Kaun
Banega
Crorepati'.
The
beauty
with
which
he
adapts
and
gels
into
the
situation
is
a
director's
delight.
Watch
him
mold
to
the
situations
and
ease
out
the
contestants
or
bring
the
tension
onto
the
game.
It's
like
the
word
is
given
and
it's
a
go."
Arun
further
shared
that
season
14
of
KBC
will
bring
alive
the
essence
of
75
years
of
Independence.
It
must
be
noted
that
Mr
Bachchan
will
host
a
special
episode
on
Sunday,
to
celebrate
'Azadi
ke
Garv
ka
Mahaparv',
in
the
presence
of
very
special
guests
who
represent
India.
The
director
also
spoke
about
the
changes
made
to
the
format
and
said
that
the
contestants
will
be
gratified
with
higher
wins
this
year.
He
shared
that
they
have
introduced
a
'New
Padaav',
where
the
contestants
can
enter
the
safe
haven
with
a
win
of
INR
75
lakhs
whilst
further
going
ahead
to
win
the
highest
prize
money
of
7.5
crores.
Sheshkumar
added
that
the
viewers
at
home
can
take
part
in
'Play
Along'
and
get
to
sit
on
the
hot
seat
every
Friday.
The
other
key
highlight
of
Kaun
Banega
Crorepati
14
includes
three
lifelines
-
Audience
Poll,
Video-a-Friend
and
50:50
adding
more
excitement
to
the
celebrated
game
show.
