Kaun Banega Crorepati, hosted by our favourite quizmaster, megastar Amitabh Bachchan, is not just a show. It is an emotion. Most of us have grown up watching it. Amitabh Bachchan has hosted all seasons of the show since its inception except the third. For the third season in 2007, Shah Rukh Khan stepped into his shoes. If you are wondering why we are talking about Kaun Banega Crorepati today, please take a look at Shoojit Sircar's latest post on Instagram. The director has shared a throwback gold featuring himself, project coordinator and executive producer Anita Kaul Basu and Amitabh Bachchan.

Shoojit Sircar, in the side note, said that he was the assistant to his mentor Siddhartha Basu on the sets of KBC.  “Today my mentor Siddhartha Basu, shared this pic with me with the caption “This day, 23 years back, the show that made TV history”… Thank you, Siddhartha Basu and Anita Basu. I was an assistant to [Siddhartha Basu] Babu in this 1st season of KBC where I first met Boss Amitabh Bachchan.” What a time it was. The first ever real time show with smart lights, sound & computerised graphics, all improvised in the cavernous sheds of Film City with AC breaking down. Rare snap - for Synergy, Shoojit was online director, Anita was handling the back end out of Delhi https://t.co/yGpeVCJkOvpic.twitter.com/NpcJXSYFba
