In a heartwarming episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati, 30-year-old Trishul Singh Choudhary from Bokaro, Jharkhand, captured the nation’s attention. Trishul, a Software Developer based in Gurgaon, made his way to the hot seat despite battling a lifelong stammering problem. His journey is nothing short of inspiring, and his courage to face the world is worth appreciating.
Childhood Dreams Crushed, But Not Broken
Trishul’s dream of joining the National Defence Academy was shattered during the interview rounds when his stammering became a roadblock. The rejection was a devastating blow, and he nearly lost confidence. But thanks to his father, his unwavering pillar of support, Trishul found the strength to focus on his abilities and shifted his dreams to engineering, a field his father had always envisioned for him.
Now a successful Software Developer specializing in e-commerce, Trishul made a bold decision to appear on national television, worried that his speech might become a point of ridicule. However, his family’s belief in him gave him the courage to try his luck on KBC, and the nation witnessed an unforgettable moment.
Amitabh Bachchan Bends the Rules for Trishul
Trishul’s appearance on KBC was marked by special accommodations from the legendary Amitabh Bachchan himself. To ease Trishul’s discomfort, Mr. Bachchan bent a few rules. During the “Video Call a Friend” lifeline, Amitabh ji read the questions and options aloud to save time, ensuring Trishul could focus without feeling pressured.
Even during the fast-paced “Super Sandook” round, where contestants have to answer 10 questions in 90 seconds, Trishul was allowed to simply say A, B, or C instead of fully stating the options. This thoughtful gesture allowed him to perform remarkably, answering 9 questions correctly.
Winning Big, But Walking Away with Grace
Trishul’s intelligence and composure led him to win an impressive 25 lakh rupees. However, he chose to quit, and not risk answering the 50 lakh rupees question. He was actually guessing it brilliantly correct though.
The 50 Lakh Rupees Question

(D) United Nations Charter
The correct answer was (B) Universal Declaration of Human Rights. His journey may not have ended with the grand prize, but Trishul Singh Choudhary walked away as a true champion, winning not just 25 lakhs, but the hearts of millions.
