The story of bringing ‘Ko Banchha Crorepati’ to Nepal

While doing higher education in India, we used to watch ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ with much enthusiasm. After completing education, we returned to Nepal and started working here.
Until just a few years ago, none of us believed that franchise of programs like ‘Who Wants to Be a Millionaire’ can be brought to Nepal and it will turn out to be a success.
However, after the success of Nepal Idol, Himalaya Roadies and other reality TV shows, we felt people watch Nepali television too if programs are of good quality.
It is really exciting to bring in the first ever ‘Ko Banchha Crorepati’ game show with iconic host – Rajesh Hamal. We are sure we will be able to create a new benchmark of quality TV show in Nepal. We are expecting a massive registration of participants. We are expecting it to become a trendsetting show on Nepali television. We hope it to brings the whole family together and knowledge is shared in the most interesting and entertaining way.
We expect ‘Ko Banchha Crorepati’ will be a milestone for Nepali television audience.

Format of ‘Ko Banchha Crorepati’ show:

1. Prize amount will be upto Rs. 1 crore per episode
2. There will be a total of 15 questions. And, if a person manages to give correct answers to all the questions, he/she will win the jackpot prize money: 1 crore rupees.
