Murtuza Hashmi is the 1000th contestant on KBC

Upcoming episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati (Sony TV) starts with roll over contestant Shivangi Maletia from Faridabad. She is a dentist by profession and aspires to be a model someday. On special demand from Shivangi, Amitabh Bachchan does a ramp walk with her which overwhelmes her as it was her first ever ramp walk and she got the chance to walk with the mega star AB. The next contestant to come on hot seat is Syed Murtuza Hashmi from Hyderabad, who is a student of first year MBBS. His brother Syed Mustfa had participated in season 6 and had reached 25 lakh but unfortunately he gave the wrong answer and went back with a smaller amount. Ever since that incident, their neighbours and area people have labelled his brother Mustafa for being over confident. So now Murtuza is here on KBC to change that perception and win for his brother’s respect.

AB announces that Syed Murtuza Hashmi is the 1000th contestant on KBC, from the time AB has been the host of the show. The next contestant to come on hot seat is Sheela Gupta from Gularbhoj. She is a housewife and her husband is a care –taker of a land, which is their only source of income. Her husband has helped her in getting educated and helped in securing an MA degree.
