Indian women's cricket star Smriti Mandhana was conspicuously absent from a special episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati featuring her World Cup-winning team, fuelling intense online speculation given the recent public chaos surrounding her postponed wedding, her father's health scare, and rumours of infidelity involving her fiance.

An actor like Amitabh Bachchan needs no introduction. He has been making his presence for some generations now and is still the face of the famous TV game show Kaun Banega Crorepati or better known as KBC. The show is currently running its 16th season which started in August 2024.

Teji Harivash Rai Srivastava Bachchan, the late mother of the veteran actor, was born on August 12, 1914, and she died on December 21, 2007. In Lahore before independence, Teji Bachchan taught psychology in addition to being a social activist. She gave birth to two sons: Amitabh and Ajitabh Bachchan with Harivansh Rai Bachchan.

He disclosed that he would give his children, Abhishek Bachchan and Shweta Bachchan Nanda, an equal share of his estate.
