Kaun Banega Crorepati 13 host Amitabh Bachchan had a playful conversation about arranged marriage and dating with contestant Shakti Prabhakar, a teacher from Nainital, leaving her embarrassed.
In a new promo video for the episode, shared online by Sony Entertainment Television on its official Instagram account, Amitabh engaged Shakti in a conversation about marriage.
Shakti said in Hindi, “Sir, I find the arranged marriage set-up to be very awkward, to be frank. Whenever I talk to a guy, they always have very structured questions. It's less about getting into a relationship and more like a job interview. Things should happen in a flow.”
An amused Amitabh asked her what she means by ‘flow’. She said, “By flow, I mean if we spoke like friends, it would be better, rather than asking questions like, ‘Can you cook? No? Then it can't work out.' I find all this very strange.”

Amitabh turned to the audience and said in disbelief, “Do you think she is telling the truth?” Amitabh further embarrassed Shakti when he asked her out on a date, and she said that nothing could ever top it.
