Actor Jaideep Ahlawat took to the hotseat of Amitabh Bachchan-hosted show Kaun Banega Crorepati along with Manoj Bajpayee and Sharib Hashmi. On the show, Jaideep revealed his pre-existing connection with the Bachchan family. The talented actor shared that he already felt a bond as he graduated from the same institute where Jaya Bachchan once studied.

Jaideep Ahlawat says, “I may be meeting you today for the first time, sir, but in a way my connection with your family is very old… because I am a pass-out from the same institute that Jaya ji passed out from.” He goes on to describe how stories of Jaya Bachchan’s student days became an integral part of the institute’s culture. Jaideep recalls seniors sharing incidents where Jaya ji and her group would sit in the old canteen and how students would keep returning there just to soak in those memories.
