KBC 17: Contestant Fails Rs 7.5 Lakh Question on PM Modi
Imagine a game show where people answer trivia questions for money, like KBC 17.
One contestant, Asha, reached a question worth a lot of money but got it wrong.
The question was about a tree-planting event by India's Prime Minister in the Maldives.
The Prime Minister planted a tree as part of a campaign to plant trees in honor of mothers.
Asha guessed the wrong type of tree.
She could have used lifelines to help her answer but didn't, and she went home with less money than she could have won.
The show, hosted by Amitabh Bachchan, airs on television.
Asha Dhiryan was a contestant on Kaun Banega Crorepati 17.
She reached the Rs 7,50,000 question.
The question was about a tree-planting event by PM Modi in the Maldives.
Asha answered incorrectly and her earnings were capped at Rs 5,00,000.
She did not use her available lifelines.
