Kaun Banega Crorepati 10 Gets Its First Crorepati In Binita Jain

Darpan News Desk IANS, 04 Oct, 2018 12:45 PM
    Binita Jain, the winner of 'Kaun Banega Crorepati 10' says she is overwhelmed by the humility of megastar Amitabh Bachchan. The winner is planning to utilize the winning amount to set up a dental clinic for her son.
     
     
    Assam-based Binita told IANS: "I am touched by the humility of Amitabh Bachchan. Being such a huge star, he is so down to earth -- the way he interacts with the audience and participants is amazing. I am touched, really."
     
     
    She has won the Rs 1 crore episode aired on Tuesday -- and she gives her luck a lot of credit for that.
     
     
    "Never did I ever imagine that I would interact with media and grab limelight for winning a game like KBC. I would say that luck played an important factor in that," she said.
     
     
    "Thousands of people are calling to participate in the game show and so many of them just don't get the phone connection at the first place. That is why they got rejected in a way. Knowledge is a different thing, but getting a platform to show your knowledge is equally important in this case. I cannot thank my luck enough," she added.
     
     
    Asked about how she prepared for the game, she said, "I am not into book reading. But I am an online reading person. So once the final round was confirmed, I started reading online."
     
     
    Binita answered 15 questions to win Rs 1 crore.
     
     
     
     
    Sharing her winning secret, the teacher said, “I think it’s the hunger for knowledge. With time, the more you get it, the more you want. I enjoy the process of knowing everything.”
     
    After quitting the game, the 46-year-old surprisingly guessed the right answer for the seven crore question. But Binita shared that she did not regret her decision. “It was a wild guess and I did not want to take the risk of losing it all,” she said.
     
    While on the hot seat, Binita opened up about her personal life. Her husband was abducted 15 years back and he never returned home. Stating that the incident only made her stronger, she said, “I was distraught by whatever happened. But I gathered my courage for my children. Seeing their faces gave me confidence every day. I came out of the troubled times and started a new life. It started with few students and then as more started coming in, I knew this was my calling. That has been truly my Kab Tak Rokoge moment.”
     
    The teacher further added that women, unfortunately, don’t know their real potential. “They are much more powerful than men. It’s all about discovering our true talent. We can also deal with tough situations better,” she smiled to say.
     
    And when asked how she is planning to spend her big prize money, the proud mother of two said, “My son is a very hard working person. He is currently doing his masters in dentistry. The money will be completely utilised to build a clinic for him as soon he graduates.”
