Aradhay shared that the question worth rupees 12 lakh 50 thousand was one of the difficult questions where he used the lifeline of expert advice. By the time, he reached the question of 25 lakhs, Aaradhay had lost all the lifelines except Fifty Fifty. He wisely decided to quit the show.

The young boy also danced with Amitabh Bachchan in the episode and shared that it was one of the most memorable moments of his life. His mother, father and elder brother were also present on the set.
He added, “It was a wonderful moment for me to meet with Amitabh Bachchan. I talked to him personally. Amitabh sir also appreciated me.”

Aaradhay loves Anil Kapoor’s character and his watch in the film Mr India. He told Big B the reason behind it and said that this watch will help him in his offline classes. When Amitabh Bachchan asked him the reason behind it, he shared that it is easier to sleep during online classes wearing Mr India’s watch. Not only this, but this watch can help them during offline studies too.
