The latest episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 promises to be a heartwarming affair as legendary singers Gurdas Maan and Shankar Mahadevan join Amitabh Bachchan on the hot seat to share touching memories of their cherished bond with the Bachchan family.

This Tuesday’s episode will showcase the singers reminiscing about their personal experiences with the Bachchan family. Amitabh Bachchan fondly recalls Maan’s soul-stirring performance at his daughter Shweta Bachchan’s wedding and the heartfelt note Maan wrote to him, which the iconic actor treasures to this day. Similarly, Shankar Mahadevan shared his pride in performing at Abhishek Bachchan’s wedding, highlighting the deep ties between these legendary artists and the Bachchan family.

During the episode, Amitabh Bachchan expressed his admiration for Punjabi folk music, a genre that resonates deeply within his household. “I was talking to my daughter Shweta because all the kids in our family listen to Punjabi folk songs; they are very popular in our household,” he shared. “I asked her how these songs become so popular and where the singers come from. She told me something that I would like you to confirm—whether it’s true or not. She said that at a very young age, children go to the Gurudwara, listen to the Bani, and learn from it. It is from there that they get their music education. Is this true?”

Gurdas Maan affirmed this, saying, “Yes, absolutely, Sir, that is correct. I’m feeling a lot of love and respect today. I remember, I was in Delhi for Shweta’s wedding, and our group performed there. Shenshah (referring to Mr. Bachchan) was standing in front of us. After I performed, he gave me a 500-rupee note as a blessing. I still keep that note as a treasure with me.”

Shankar Mahadevan added, “You sang at Shweta ji’s wedding, and I sang at Abhishek ji’s wedding.”

Big B also reminisced about an unforgettable New Year’s house party, where artistic legends like Pandit Birju Maharaj and Zakir Hussain left everyone spellbound with their mesmerizing performances. These anecdotes not only highlight the Bachchan family’s deep appreciation for art and culture but also the strong bond they share with these musical maestros.
