Kaun Banega Crorepati 6 to return in September

Preview: A few weeks ago, reports claimed that the launch of the sixth season of Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) will coincide with host Amitabh Bachchan’s 70th birthday. However, industry insiders now say that the show will not air on October 11. Instead, it will begin soon after season six of Indian Idol wraps up towards mid-September.

Despite several attempts to reach her, we couldn’t speak to broadcaster Sony Entertainment’s business head, Sneha Rajani. However, it’s believed that Bachchan will start shooting sometime next month, as most of the pre-production work is over. The show is likely to get a weekday night slot.
