Big Question of Today’s ‘KBC17’
Despite not coming from an educated background, Asif impressed everyone with his knowledge and calm composure, smoothly reaching the INR 50 lakh mark by using just one lifeline. However, the next question proved tougher. He had to use both his remaining lifelines, but still couldn’t find the right answer. Curious to know what that challenging question was? The question was: At which of these places is the Indian Cultural Centre run under the Ministry of External Affairs, not named after Swami Vivekananda?

The options provided were:
A. Tokyo
B. Kuala Lumpur
C. Tangon
D. Bangkok
Asif used both his remaining lifelines (50-50 and Sanket Suchak) but still wasn’t confident about the answer. Amitabh Bachchan advised him to play carefully and avoid guesswork, as it could go wrong. After thinking for a while, Asif decided to quit and took home INR 25 lakh. Ironically, his initial guess—option B, Kuala Lumpur, was correct. Had he attempted it, he would have doubled his winnings and continued in the game. Even so, INR 25 lakh was a dream amount for him, and he had no complaints. ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati 17’: Can You Answer THIS INR 12.5 Lakh Nobel Prize Question That Stumped Chemistry Teacher Meenakshi Yadav?.
