The 15th season of Kaun Banega Crorepati went on air on August 14 ahead of Independence Day 2023 with multiple new changes in the format

Badal raha hai desh, badal raha hai Kaun Banega Crorepati; Sony Entertainment Television brought viewers an updated and upgraded version of this fan favourite game show in its 15th season! Having successfully entertained audiences for an incredible 23 years, the show premiered on August 14th and will air every Monday to Friday at 9 p.m. The perfect amalgamation of knowledge and entertainment, megastar Amitabh Bachchan hosts this reality show with elan and gravitas. With the promise of a #NewBeginning, Kaun Banega Crorepati will capture the essence of the progress that India is making, bringing forth some remarkable changes that will make the game play tougher and far more engaging.

Talking about ‘badlav’ in this season, one of the exciting new additions to the show is the introduction of the ‘Super Sandook’, which adds thrill to the game, providing a much-required respite that allows the contestant to revive what has been lost. The second significant change is ‘Desh Ka Sawal’, which will drive more audience participation. Along with Video Call a Friend and Audience Poll, a new lifeline called ‘Double Dip’ has been added to the format and this season also brings back the adrenaline-pumping Fastest Finger First feature. A sleeker show-set brought together all these changes, lending itself to this fast-paced gameplay that will masterfully be executed by host Amitabh Bachchan.

Neeraj Vyas, Business Head - Sony Entertainment Television, Sony SAB, PAL and Sony MAX Movie Cluster, said, "One of the most attractive aspects about Kaun Banega Crorepati is that it is entertainment accompanied by learning, which keeps viewers glued to the screen.

Amitabh Bachchan, legendary actor, and host of Kaun Banega Crorepati, shared, "Kaun Banega Crorepati has always been gyaandaar, dhandaar and shaandaar, but in its 15th season, we will be ushering in a new beginning – representing an evolving India, its aspirations, and its citizens who dream big. This show has become an integral part of my life, it’s a platform for me to connect with audiences - both inside the studio as well as those watching the show from the comfort of their homes.
