There are so many shows which offer more money than 1 crore. Do you think KBC would be able to interest people?
Sony feels it has been a longtime a show since they brought a format like KBC. There has been lot of experiments not just in India, but in other countries as well, and following those results from the research that they have done, they feel that it is time for Kaun Banega Crorepati to do a back again

KBC has always been related to you. It’s an impression and image that you have created in the minds of people. How do you feel?
It is not our job to create an image in the minds of people. It’s media who does it. For us actors, we perform our best and leave it for the audience to decide.

Shah Rukh Khan stepped in your shoes for the third season of KBC. What do you have to say about him as a host?
I don’t think it’s fair to compare Shahrukh Khan and me. He has done an extremely fair job.
