Now that Amitabh Bachchan made it official he will be hosting the fourth season Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC), the Bollywood superstar said it was his wife Jaya who supported him with his telly debut.

"I was scared and nervous not knowing what the public would have to say about the show, about my involvement and its eventual result", blogged Bachchan about his first day's experiences of anchoring the block buster game show..

"I had come home and isolated myself in my office room and quietly had put on the TV, almost not wanting anyone to hear that I was watching the program.

"After 5 mins of its start I put it off, unable to bear what the rest of the country was thinking about it and waited silently for it to get over. And when it did I hesitated to face the family. It was in vain though. The family, represented by Jaya had watched the entire show and when I came to her she said "Amit ji ! This show is going to be a super hit!" said Big B in his blog.

Bachchan said he is excited about hosting KBC 4.

"KBC is back! So its Kaun Banega Crorepati after 10 years of its first broadcast in year 2000 and goodness it all feels like it was yesterday. And yes it can be said now that I shall be hosting it, " said Bachchan.

He tweeted about the show: "T51 -Through with press conference. Kaun Banega Crorepati is on and I host it for Sony TV! One of the best PC's I have attended."

Kaun Banega Crorepati was launched ten years back in 2000 and it turned out to be one of the most popular game show in Indian television history.

KBC was hosted by Big B himself for the first two seasons, while Shah Rukh Khan anchored the third edition of the popular show.

All the three seasons were telecast on Star Plus, but this time it will be aired on Sony Entertainment Television.
