Listen to Story In the recent episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, a UPSC aspirant, Ujjwal Prajapat, narrowly missed becoming the season's first crorepati. Despite winning a substantial Rs 50 lakh on Monday, September 23, he was unable to correctly answer the Rs 1 crore question, which was related to World War I. As a result, he had to settle for the Rs 50 lakh prize money.
Host Amitabh Bachchan posed a question to Ujjwal Prajapat regarding the princely state ruler who signed the Treaty of Versailles on behalf of India following World War I in 1919. The options provided were Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, Nizam Mir Osman Ali Khan, Namid Hamidullah, and Maharaja Ganga Singh. The correct answer was Maharaja Ganga Singh.
However, Ujjwal decided to quit the game before attempting this question. Consequently, Kaun Banega Crorepati 16 still awaits its first crorepati. Watch the promo here: A post shared by Sony LIV (@sonylivindia) Ujjwal Prajapat's mother sells beedis while his grandmother makes pots.
Ujjwal explained that his family struggles to make ends meet, often having just enough food to survive. His father works as a labourer. However, Ujjwal aspires to alter his family's circumstances through the substantial winnings he received from Kaun Banega Crorepati 16.
