Krishna, who came on the sets of the reality TV show Kaun Banega Crorepati, took the game forward with great wisdom and reached the question of Rs 1 crore.
‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ once again the audience got to see the charisma when a tile fitting artisan sat on the hotseat. Krishna Kumawat, who earned just Rs 800 a day, won Rs 50 lakh on KBC. He said that he will use this money to repair his house and provide good education to his children. Krishna narrowly missed winning ₹1 crore on this show. Amitabh Bachchan had asked Krishna a question related to Pythagoras theorem for one crore rupees.
Had left studies for family
Krishna Kumawat, who came from Shampura, Rajasthan, continued his journey in the show on September 1. After leaving school after 12th due to financial constraints of the family, Krishna took upon himself the responsibility of supporting the family. His studies may have stopped, but his desire to learn never stopped. His dedication finally took him to KBC 18, where he won Rs 50 lakh and left the show with the question of Rs 1 crore.
traveled by ship for the first time
Krishna has been doing tile installation work for the last 10 to 15 years. He used to install tiles on floors, kitchens and bathrooms. Being the eldest among his siblings, he said that due to the financial condition of the family he had to take up responsibilities at an early age. Describing his KBC journey, he said that he has come to Mumbai for the first time and has traveled by ship for the first time in his life. Krishna told that after winning Kaun Banega Crorepati, he also wants to get a Mangalsutra made for his wife.
What was the question of Rs 1 crore?
Playing with great discretion, Krishna gradually reached the question of Rs 1 crore. Host Amitabh Bachchan asked Krishna, “Which future US President published the original proof of the Pythagorean theorem while serving as an MP?” The options were- A. Zackary Taylor, b. James Buchanan, C. Rutherford b. Hayes, D. James A. Garfield. Because Krishna was not sure about the answer to this question, instead of taking the risk, he decided to go home with Rs 50 lakh. Let us tell you that the correct answer to this question is James A. It’s Garfield.
