Its been running for 11 years now but I think the last two years of KBC have been the best. The prime reason being that the show now presents the background stories of all the participants, in their own words. The diversity of contestants represent the diversity of our country. There have been all types of contestants, the jolly, the serious, the talkative, the introvert, the eccentric, the laid-back, and everything else. Perhaps, the biggest reason I like this show is that it is the perfect example that shows us that one doesn't have to be from a metro city to achieve great things. In fact, the people coming to the show from small towns far outnumber the participants from big cities. And what towns!! There are some which we would have never heard before, and would probably never hear of again. There are some people from towns where the entire population is less than that of a housing complex in a city! The show also breaks the popular thought that people in small towns don't have the same IQ as people from big cities. Time and again this has been proved to be false, as many contestants have gone on to win huge amounts, more than anything many of them would have ever dreamed off. This just goes to show that given the opportunity, many of us would achieve great heights, despite our backgrounds and place of residence.
Last but definitely not the least, and perhaps the biggest draw of the show, is a certain Mr. Amitabh Bachchan. There is no words to describe the abilities and accomplishments of the great man. He has achieved it all in life and there is nothing left for him to prove. Yet the zest with which he still carries out his work, both on the screen and on the sets, is truly inspirational. His ease with the contestants is refreshing, and it makes them comfortable. He hasn't lost any of his sense of humour or his comic timing. The way he has fun with the participants is a treat to the audience.
