On a recent episode of 'Kaun Banega Crorepati 13' Amitabh Bachchan recalled getting punishment during his hostel days.
Amitabh Bachchan is currently seen as a host on ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati 13’ and is immensely interactive with the guests. On a recent episode of the show, Tushar Bharadwaj, who is dean of student activities at a hostel, appeared as a contestant. When he asked Big B about his hostel days, the actor recalled some of his memories and revealed he was once caned for secretly plating billiards.
Amitabh shared that he and his friends loved to play billiards, however, only class 10 students were permitted to play the game. So, he along with his four friends would sneak out at night and opened the billiards room to play the game.
The ‘Piku’ actor further shared that one day they were caught by their warden who then beat them with a cane. He said that earlier, there were three categories of caning - two, four and six, the last one for kids who snuck out of the hostel.
That day, Bachchan revealed, he was beaten four times with a cane and they weren’t allowed to shout while getting the punishment and had to say ‘thank you sir’ instead. He also recalled that since he was in a boys school, they had one dormitory with a huge bathroom with 30-40 showers.
All the kids would bathe together and would found if someone had been beaten up with black marks on their posterior. The 78-year-old’s story made the entire audience burst into laughter. He concluded by telling everyone that caning is now illegal in India.
Last week former cricketers Saurav Ganguly and Virender Sehwag appeared in ‘KBC 13’ as guests and their week the special episode will be graced by Deepika Padukone and Farah Khan.
