KBC 14 contestant Vijay Gupta gave an incorrect answer to a question related to Ramayana. He took home Rs 10,000.
Amitabh Bachchan began the Thursday (August 25) episode of Kaum Banega Crorepati 14 by welcoming rollover contestant Prashant Sharma. Amitabh Bachchan shared on the show that as a kid he learnt music. However, when he went for the test and the teacher asked him to sing a raag, he could not and was scolded a lot. Prashant won Rs 25 lakh on the show, while Vijay Gupta, who took the hotseat after him, took home Rs 10,000.
Prashant Sharma from Nainital had won Rs 1.6 lakh in the previous episode. The 44-year-old contestant is a professor of hotel management. Prashant used his second lifeline, 50:50, for 12th question, and won Rs 12.5 lakh. For the 13th question, the contestant used his last lifeline but his friend could not help him with the answer. The question was related to India's first test series win in England. Prashant went with his instinct and won Rs 25 lakh.
Here are the question answered by Prashant:

Prashant did not know the answer to the 14th question for Rs 50 and decided to leave the show with R 25 lakh. After Prashant, Dr Vijay Gupta took the hotseat. The 49-year-old from Vadodara, Gujarat got so excited after Big B announced his name, he removed his shirt and waved it to the audience. Amitabh Bachchan said that it looks like he watches football matches a lot. After he wore his shirt back, he took the hotseat and got emotional, as he had been trying for KBC for a long time.
