The upcoming Diwali special episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 17 promises to be an evening filled with laughter, nostalgia, and pure entertainment, thanks to comedians Sunil Grover and Krushna Abhishek. In newly released promos, the duo can be seen lighting up the iconic set of the quiz show with their wit and humour, and even making host Amitabh Bachchan laugh uncontrollably.
In one of the viral clips, Sunil Grover takes center stage performing his hilarious song “Mere Husband Mujhko Pyaar Nahi Karte.” Dressed in a crisp white suit and sporting a clean-shaven look, the actor-comedian’s antics leave the audience and Big B in splits. His The Great Indian Kapil Show co-star Krushna Abhishek couldn’t hold back his laughter either, visibly impressed by Sunil’s impeccable timing and comic flair.

Sunil Grover mimics Amitabh Bachchan
But the real highlight of the episode comes when Sunil decides to turn the tables, quite literally, by mimicking Amitabh Bachchan himself. Donning an outfit identical to the legendary host’s, Sunil takes over the quiz master’s chair, while Bachchan gamely switches seats to play the contestant. Channeling his inner Big B, Sunil hilariously scolds an audience member trying to leave mid-show, perfectly nailing the superstar’s tone and mannerisms.
Fans’ reaction
The video, shared by Sony Entertainment Television, has been creating waves online. Fans flooded the comments section with laughter and admiration. One user wrote, “Omg!!! Finally, the face-off we have been waiting for!” Another added, “Sunil pajji… aap jesa koi nahi!” while several others predicted, “Koi nahi banega crorepati in this episode.”
Krushna Abhishek adds to the fun as Dharmendra
