But 17 years is a lifetime and a lifetime that was given a lifeline by you,” he further wrote,
The 76-year-old actor also noted that he has started shooting for the introduction and initiation for the eleventh season. “Hey (they) are calling me to record and shoot how to call you on KBC,” he concluded.
In the month of February this year, Amitabh took to Twitter to announce the new season of his popular show. Take a look:
It is to be noted that ‘KBC’ was originally aired on Star Plus for the first 3 seasons from 2000 to 2007 and was commissioned by the programming team of Sameer Nair. Since 2010, it had been airing on Sony TV and produced by Big Synergy.
The 76-year-old star has hosted 9 seasons of the show, except the 3rd edition, which was hosted by superstar Shah Rukh Khan.
