Amitabh Bachchan, who made his debut with Saat Hindustani and went on to win hearts with iconic movies like Zanjeer, Sholay, and Deewar, is one of the biggest stars in India. He continues to charm audiences as the host of Kaun Banega Crorepati, a popular quiz show. Known for his engaging storytelling, Amitabh often shares fascinating stories and personal anecdotes about his life and family on the show, making each episode a memorable experience for viewers.

In a new promo of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, Amitabh Bachchan opened up about his academic struggles during his graduation days. The veteran actor recalled how he pursued a Bachelor of Science (BSc) degree without fully understanding what the course was all about. The Sholay mentioned that while he had initially scored well in science, the actual experience of studying it in college was a challenge. Amitabh shared that his first attempt at the exams resulted in failure, and even after trying again with much effort, he only managed to secure 42 percent. Bachchan humorously noted how his perception of science as a promising field changed drastically within just 45 minutes.
