The show Kaun Banega Crorepati has already begun preparing for its highly awaited 18th season, with Amitabh Bachchan once again being announced as its host. The shoot of this season is planned to commence on 1st August, 2026, at a newly built set at Film City, Mumbai.The new season comes with the interesting theme, “Is Baar… Sochna Padega,” promising an altogether new dimension to the classic quiz game. Though KBC has always been known for rewarding those who know their stuff, the 18th season of the show is going to lay more stress on thinking, strategy, and good decision making, rather than quick answers.Recently, the channel released an exciting teaser of the show starring Amitabh Bachchan at a beautiful golf course. Comparing golf and life, Amitabh Bachchan states that the first answer may not be the correct one always.He says, “Bachpan main humein sikhaya gaya tha ki jo pehle jawab de, sabse sahi wahi hai. Lekin zindagi mein kai baar, pehla jawab hi sahi nahi hota. Toh is baar KBC mein, jawab dene se pehle khud ko zara rokna padega. Nahi samjhe? Is baar… sochna padega.”(As children, we were taught that the one who answers first is the one who is right. But in life, many a time, the first answer isn’t the right one. So this time on KBC, before giving your answer, you’ll have to pause for a moment. Didn’t get it? This time… you’ll have to think.. Sochna Padega)The promo, using the simple message but an effective one, hints at something refreshing about the popular quiz show, as contestants will have to stop and think before answering. The film is shot on a beautiful golf course where it becomes clear how similar the patience and precision in golf are to the intelligent decision making which can save the day on the hot seat of the KBC quiz show. The coming season of the show will focus on decision making as a crucial aspect for winning because sometimes mere knowledge is not enough; a thought will do better.
