The duo - Achin and Sarthak, 24 and 23 respectively - won the mega amount on the 'Jodi Special' episode of the eighth season of the show, hosted by megastar Amitabh Bachchan.
"This was unexpected and it is totally unbelievable. We had thought we will win about Rs.25 lakh and then we will leave. But this has turned out to be a life-defining moment for us," Achin, who is into marketing, told IANS over phone from Mumbai.
His brother Sarthak is a student.
