KBC beats all other reality shows in TRPs

Mumbai, October 13: On Monday night, Amitabh Bachchan and Kaun Banega Crorepati made a comeback on the small screen coinciding with the Big B’s 68th birthday. So did Bachchan senior manage to make an impact on the TRPs?

Bachchan’s return to the fourth season of Kaun Banega Crorepati has been an event in itself, while the show changed hands from Star Plus to Sony Entertainment — the channel made sure that the opening episode was a celebration of sorts — having coincided to play out with the Big B’s 68th birthday.

Television viewers not only got to see Senior Bachchan mouth a few dialogues from some of his popular films but also witnessed the actor singing and shaking a leg before returning to play his role as the host. While there were a few tweets from the likes of Abhishek Bachchan and Akshay Kumar cheering the Big B’s return to television, general public too gave a thumbs up to the show.
