Apparently Amitabh Bachchan was approached by a TV channel to host a game show, 1 Vs 100. If all goes well, Bachchan will host the Hindi adaptation of the popular game show 1 vs 100, which has been created by Endemol and aired in several countries.

Our source says, “The show has a lavish budget and Bachchan’s presence as the host will take it to dizzy heights.” Buzz is that Bachchan has liked the project and the modalities are being worked out. The show is likely to be aired early next year.

The game show 1 Vs 100 was first aired in the Netherlands as Eén Tegen Honderd. 1 Vs 100 pits one person against 100 others to win a large cash prize. The 100 people are collectively known as The Mob. To win the game outright, the 'One' must eliminate all 100 members of the Mob by answering questions correctly. After having the opportunity to select a difficult level or a category, a multiple-choice question with three options is revealed. The Mob is given a short time (15 seconds on the US show, 6 seconds for the Australian show) to lock in their answer before The One is given the opportunity to answer the question.

If the One is correct, all Mob members that answered the question incorrectly are eliminated, bringing the lone contestant closer to winning the game. The money in the contestant’s bank increases depending on the number of mob members eliminated in that question. If the contestant eliminates all 100-mob members, he or she claims the prize money. However, if the One is incorrect, the game ends and he or she is left with nothing. In some versions, the remaining members of the Mob split the losing contestant's winnings.

Vickey Lalwani messaged Amitabh Bachchan

While the channel authorities refused to reply to our text messages, Amitabh Bachchan reverted. In his message he told us, “Offers have been made... I’m still studying them... but nothing is confirmed.” When we asked him if he was offered the game show 1 Vs 100, he said, “I am not comfortable talking beyond what I have said already.”
