Bollywood / What was KBC 12's ₹7-crore question that wasn't answered?

Mumbai: On Wednesday, Amitabh Bachchan's 'Kaun Banega Crorepati 12' got its first crorepati in Nazia Nasim, a Delhi resident. Nazia is a communication professional, who hails from Ranchi. She played the gameshow extremely well and her focus and determination won over everybody, including Big B. 

Without losing a lifeline, Nazia initially managed to win Rs 6,40,000 and soon reached the Rs 1 crore question, which made her create history this season. It's not always that Amitabh Bachchan gets to ask the Rs 1 crore question, but Wednesday's episode was different.
