‘The Archies’ cast including Suhana Khan, Agastya Nanda, Khushi Kapoor, Dot, Yuvraj Menda, Mihir Ahuja and Vedang Raina were seen in the recent episode of 'Kaun Banega Crorepati 15'. They were on the show to promote their film. In the KBC episode, Amitabh Bachchan asked Suhana, Vedang and Zoya a question about Shah Rukh Khan and daughter Suhana wasn’t able to answer which left him surprised.
Amitabh asked during the ‘Super Sandook’ round, “Shah Rukh Khan has not yet received which of these honours?” The options given were: “(a) Padma Shri, (b) Legion of Honour, (c), L’Etoile d’Or and (d) Volpi Cup.” To this Suhana quickly answered, ‘(a) Padma Shri’. Both Amitabh and Vedang were shocked hearing Suhana’s answer. Vedant’s couldn’t stop but ask Suhana, “How could you that wrong?”
Even Amitabh was amazed on how the daughter could not know which award her father has received. Shah Rukh Khan had received Padma Shri in 2005.
Reacting to Suhana’s ignorance, Amitabh jokingly said, “Beti ko pata nahi hai ki pita ko kya mila hai. Keval baap ne itna hi bata ke bheja hai ki wo saamne baitha hai usne tumhare baap ka kirdaar adaa kiya hai. Toh unko bol dena ki bhaiyya jara aaram se sawaal pucho. Abhi itna aaram se sawaal pucha phir bhi uska jawab nahi de payi ye. (The daughter does not know what the father has got. The father has sent her only by telling her that the person sitting in front of her has played the role of his father; and that I should ask his daughter easy questions. Now, that I have asked her an easy question, she still doesn’t not know the answer).”
Suhana was quite embarrassed that she didn’t know the right answer. The correct answer to the question was option (d) Volpi Cup.
When Bachchan had asked Suhana if SRK gave her any advice before she came on to the show, she told Big B, “Unhone kahan ki aapko bas yaad dila du ki aapne unke father ka role play kiya hai toh ask me easy questions (He asked me to remind you that you have played his father onscreen and hence ask easy questions)”.
Zoya Akhtar’s ‘The Archies’ released on December 1 on OTT platform Netflix.
