Sanoj Raj of Jahanabad, Bihar has become the first Crorepati of Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 11. Though, he has failed to win the jackpot question of Rs. 7 crore, but he is happy in his 1 crore amount and considers this winning amount to his father.
He played the whole game well and even after knowing the answer of the 15th question which was of 1 crore he took the lifeline of Ask the Expert. The question was –“Which Chief Justice of India was the father of a Chief Minister of a state in India? Ans.- Justice Ranjan Gogoi. “
Amitabh Bachchan even asked the reason behind using a lifeline despite knowing the right answer. Here Sanoj answered and said, “I can’t use the lifeline in the last question of 7 Crore and I don’t want to take the risk in the question of 1 Crore, that’ s why I have used the lifeline.”
Well, the 16th question of 7 Crore was “Who was the Indian bowler off whom Australian legend Don Bradman got a single to reach his 100th first-class century?”
- Baka Jilani
- C Rangachari
- Gogumal Kishan Chand
- Kanwar Rai Singh
Ans. C. Gogumal Kishan Chand
He doesn’t know the right answer to it and preferred quitting as he doesn’t want to take the risk with his 1 Crore.
