There's no reality show like Kaun Banega Crorepati and boy, are we glad! Currently, Kaun Banega Crorepati is in its 12th season. Hitherto, about three people have become the crorepatis and coincidentally, all of them turned out to be women. The latest one to be crorepatis, Anupa Das, hailing from Jagdalpur district of Chattisgarh. She won the prize money of Rs 1 crore as she quit the show when she reached Rs 7 crore question. Anupa wasn't sure so she quit the show. However, she impressed Amitabh Bachchan very much with her composure and the depth of her knowledge. Anupa's mother has been detected with stage 3 cancer and she needed money for the same.
In an interview with Indian Express, she opened up on her win saying, "My family and I have had a really hard time as majority of the money was spent in hospitals. Now, all that I have is theirs. Everything that I have earned on the show is going to go towards supporting my family. By God's grace, we finally have the resources to give my mother the best possible treatment."
Here's the question she quit but answered correctly: In One Day International cricket, which team have Riaz Poonawala and Shaukat Dukanwala represented?. The answer to the same is the United Arab Emirates. Talking about answering the question correctly, Anupa said, "The question was based on sports, and since it's not my strength, I did panic a little. One wrong answer would have taken away a huge sum, which we, as a family, need right now. Thus I decided to let it go. However, post the game, when Amit ji announced that I had chosen the correct answer, I was astounded. Nonetheless, I am very happy and proud of what I achieved on the show."
Anupa went on to express her getting recognised everywhere these days, the teacher-by-profession said, "Being on the show has completely changed my life. People's attitude towards me and every little thing around me has changed, for the better. I am actually at a loss of words to explain this indescribable feeling."
