Book Summary
110 Crore Hindustani is a quiz / general knowledge guide by Siddhartha Basu, designed especially for fans and aspirants of the hugely popular Indian television quiz show Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC).
The book is structured to follow the same format used in the show, helping readers understand how questions are asked, how lifelines work (fifty‑fifty, audience poll, phone a friend, etc.), and what strategies might help during auditions and actual gameplay. It includes a large number of sample questions (often called “teasers”) across various categories—history, geography, current affairs, general knowledge, culture, etc.—in order to help readers sharpen their knowledge and speed.
It also contains qualifying rounds like “Fastest Finger First” practice, which is a preliminary round in the real show to select contestants who will sit in the hot seat. Overall, its goal is both educational and practical: to entertain, to widen general awareness and to prepare people so that if they want, they can try their luck and do well on KBC.
About the Author —
Siddhartha Basu is a pioneering figure in Indian television quizzing, known widely as the “father of TV quizzes” in India.
