Kaun Banega Crorepati 13 was about to introduce another crorepati who was 17 or younger on Wednesday. The host Amitabh Bachchan started the day off with a 1 crore point question for Rajnandini Kalita, who returned from the previous episode.

The young champ from Guwahati Assam was asked: “Who became the world's youngest chess grandmaster at age 12 years, 4 months, and 25 days?” The options given were: (a) Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa (b) Abhimanyu Mishra (c) Beth Harmon (d) Gukesh Dommaraju.

Though she mentioned that she read about it, she could not remember the answer. In the end, Rajnandini decided not to continue playing the game after quite a while of contemplation. As a prize, she won 50 lakhs points. Answer B, Abhimanyu Mishra, is the correct choice for the deciding question.

The dream of Rajnandini is to become president of this country one day. She gave a speech on the show, and Big B stated that few MLAs and MPs are capable of speaking in such a clear and articulate way at such a young age. A special segment of the Sony TV game show featured young children. The contestants who won the hot seat managed to not only impress but also amuse their host Amitabh Bachchan.

Following Rajnandini, Varnika Kothari reached the hot seat but was unable to get more than 10,000 points after giving a wrong answer. As the game continues, Amitoj Singh joins Amitabh Bachchan.
