Kaun Banega Crorepati, hosted by actor Amitabh Bachchan is presently on season 11 and the show’s questions often turn it into a source of conversation for many. However, it’s not just the questions that intrigue people. It’s also the various incidents related to KBC that manage to create quite a stir. Case in point, a recent tweet from MP Tejasvi Surya involving a contestant’s response has left people in splits.
On November 1, Surya took to Twitter and Instagram to share screenshots of a question from an episode where his name popped up as an option.
“Which of the following members of the 17th Lok Sabha is a black belt in Aikido, a Japanese martial art?” reads the question on one of the images. And, the accompanying options are Gautam Gambhir, Rahul Gandhi, Anurag Thakur, and Tejasvi Surya.
Playing for ₹6,40,000, the contestant - Narendra Kumar from Mathura, Uttar Pradesh – selected Tejasvi Surya as the answer. The correct answer, however, was Rahul Gandhi.
Hence, the MP decided to dish out a light-hearted tweet about the player’s mistake. “Bro, I feel so bad for you,” wrote Surya. “I wish I was indeed a black belt in Aikido. You would have been a richer man today,” he further added.
Since being shared, the post has quickly captured people’s attention – both on Twitter and Instagram. It’s clear from the thousands of likes and hundreds of comments it has received on both the platforms.

“Great humour,” wrote an Instagram user. “Even I thought it was you and not Rahul,” commented another. “You are so sweet,” wrote a third.
