There’s buzz in the atmosphere when celebrities take to the hot seat to battle general knowledge questions in front of veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan in Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC). But the pressure mounts when a life depends on the prize money. Deepika Padukone and Farah Khan, who shot for the Shaandaar Shukravaar celebrity episode on KBC 13 last week, won Rs 25 lakh.
As Padukone pledged a portion of the winning amount to her Live Love Laugh Foundation, Khan donated her half towards the treatment of 17-month-old baby Ayansh Madan, from Gurgaon. The toddler is suffering from Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) due to which his brain cannot control voluntary movements. The filmmaker has been raising funds for the prescription drug Zolgensma, which costs Rs 16 crore. “It’s a cause very close to my heart,” she says.
