The ’50:50? helpline has been dropped. Instead, after the seventh question there will be ‘double dip’ in which the contestant can give two tries for the answer, the actor said.
The ten contestants participating in fastest finger first would get chance for four days to try their luck this time, Basu said.
Several celebrities would appear on the show. Instead of a single participant, a team would play this time around, Basu said, adding the prize money would go to charity.
Also, under a new concept of ‘Ghadiyal babu’, the participants would have to answer the first two questions in 30 seconds and the next five in 45 seconds
This was the first appearance of Bachchan on Indian television. The show was hugely popular in India.
On August 5, 2005, the show was restarted after a four-year hiatus, and renamed Kaun Banega Crorepati Dwitiya (Kaun Banega Crorepati the Second, or KBC2) in which the final prize amount was doubled to 2 crore rupees. It was abruptly ended by STAR Plus after the host Amitabh Bachchan fell ill in 2006.[1] Mr Bachchan had shot 61 of the 85 episodes when he fell ill. He announced he would return after he recovered, but when his health prevented him filming the remaining 24 episodes, Star TV took the decision to axe it.
Star Television roped in Shahrukh Khan to host the third season of the show. Khan was at peak of his career then and was considered an ideal replacement for Amitabh Bachchan as the host of the show. The grand prize amount of 2 crore rupees (approx. $430,000 USD) was still used in KBC3. The third season of the show began airing on January 22, 2007. But all the hysteria receded soon after and its TRP went down. The third season did not receive good reviews from audiences. The show ended on April 19, 2007 with a special finale. The key sponsors of the third season were AirTel, Unit Trust of India (UTI Mutual Funds) and ITC Limited.
The fourth season (KBC4) will again be hosted by Amitabh Bachchan and will go on air from October 11, 2010, on Bachchan’s birthday. According to online news sources, over five million (50 Lakh) people are reported to have participated in ‘KBC 4? auditions. The prize money has been increased to Rs 5 crores (slightly more than $1 million USD) in the fourth season of the show

Kaun Kanega Crorepati Rules
As in the UK version, the contestants must undergo an initial round of “Fastest Finger First”, in which the host introduces the ten contestants of the episode and asks them all the same question. The contestants must then arrange the answers in the order described in the question. The contestant that places the four options in the correct order in the fastest time gets the chance to go on the “hotseat”.
All contestants must be over the age of 18 and a citizen of India in order to be eligible. The person must not be a former “Kaun Banega Crorepati” contestant and, as defined in the Income Tax Act, 1961, must also be a resident of India.
At the hotseat, the contestant is asked a series of general knowledge questions consistently rising in difficulty with every question. Each question has four options with only one correct answer. The contestant wins a certain amount of money with each correct answer, and may choose to give up and retain the money they have already won if they decide not to answer the currently shown question.
The money won after each question is roughly doubled from the previous amount won, exponentially increasing the amount won after each correct answer until the contestant reaches the final question, after which they win the maximum prize (currently 2 crores in KBC2 and 3). The current sequence of prize amounts on KBC are as follows (Western digit grouping in parentheses):

Lifelines
The current lifelines in KBC3 are the same ones that were used in KBC2. The only difference being that the first season of KBC didn’t have the “Flip the Question” lifeline. A contestant can use a lifeline when s/he is undecided about which answer is correct. A lifeline can only be used once.
Audience Poll – If the contestant uses this lifeline, it will result in the host repeating the question to the audience; hence, this is a poll of the audience currently in the studio. The studio audience get approximately 10 seconds to answer the question using the “keypads” provided. After the audience have chosen their choices, the results are shown on the monitors screens of the host and contestant, as well as the TV viewers.
Phone a Friend – If the contestant uses this lifeline, the contestant is allowed to call one of the few pre-arranged friends. The host usually starts off by talking to the contestant’s friend and introduces him/her to the viewers. After the introduction, the host hands the phone call over to the contestant who then immediately has 30 seconds to ask and hope for a reply from their friend.
Fifty-Fifty (50/50) – If the contestant uses this lifeline, the host will ask the computer to randomly remove and eliminate two of the “wrong” answers. This will leave one right answer and one wrong answer, resulting in a situation of eliminating 50% of the choices as well as having a 50% chance of getting the answer right if the contestant is in a situation of making a guess.
At the start of KBC2, a new lifeline has been introduced called “Flip the Question”. This lifeline is also used in KBC3:
Flip the Question – Just like the lifeline that was once available in the US version, the contestant can request a replacement question if they are undecided. A notable difference is that this lifeline was only available after the $25,000 mark (question 10) in the US while in KBC, the “Flip the Question” lifeline is available to the contestant at the Rs. 20,000 mark (question 5). (Note: As of the 2008-2009 season, this lifeline is no longer available in the US version and has been replaced with “Ask-the-Expert.”)

Kaun Kanega Crorepati fourth season
Amitabh Bachchan was roped in once again to host the fourth season in 2010. The show was shifted from Star Plus to Sony Television, but the faces behind the curtain will be the same such as Siddhartha Basu remains the director and creative head. The new logo designed for the fourth season incorporated the new Indian Rupee symbol, which was unveiled the same year. The phone lines for the fourth season opened on August 2, 2010 at 9 PM (IST). Sony TV announced that the fourth season will go on air from October 11, 2010; which also happens to be Bachchan’s birthday.
Phraseology
Since its launch in the year 2000, KBC has inspired thousands with Amitabh’s catchy phrases like “Lock kiya jaye?” which has been used in the media a countless number of times, an example being in the 2001 film Nayak: The Real Hero starring Anil Kapoor and Rani Mukerji. With the new series that is hosted by Shahrukh Khan, wordage such as “Lock kiya jaye?” have been changed to “Freeze it!”. Additional expressions have been introduced in KBC3 like “Kuch sawaal aapki zindagi badal sakte hain!” which is the official motto of the current show and “Kachcha Kachcha? Pakka Pakka?” that figuratively means “Are you sure or are you not sure?” and literally means “Is your answer unripe? Or is your answer ripe?
