Madhuri Dixit is all set to enter a new chapter in her television journey. The celebrated actress will turn host for ‘Kon Honar Crorepati’, the Marathi adaptation of the popular Kaun Banega Crorepati franchise. The actress recently unveiled the first promo of the quiz show, giving fans a glimpse of her fresh avatar.

In the promo, Madhuri embraces a quintessential Maharashtrian look, complete with a traditional nath, as she announces the arrival of the show. Adding a nostalgic Bollywood touch, the promo features the iconic background music of “Pehla Pehla Pyaar Hai” from her blockbuster film Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!

Sharing the announcement on social media, Madhuri expressed her excitement about stepping into the new role. She described the show as a special new beginning and highlighted its themes of knowledge, dreams and possibilities. Her Marathi announcement also teased that something unprecedented is about to happen across Maharashtra as the game is set to change.

The announcement has already generated considerable excitement among Madhuri’s fans, with social media users flooding the comments with heart emojis and messages of anticipation. Her elegant Maharashtrian appearance and warm screen presence have further added to the buzz surrounding the show.

Although Madhuri has enjoyed a long association with television, including appearances as a host and judge on dance-based reality shows, ‘Kon Honar Crorepati’ marks her first stint as the host of a quiz-based reality show. It also marks her first association with the Kaun Banega Crorepati franchise.

With Madhuri at the helm, the show aims to combine the much-loved quiz format with her distinctive charm and connect strongly with Marathi-speaking audiences. ‘Kon Honar Crorepati’ will air on Sony Marathi and stream on Sony LIV, promising a fresh blend of knowledge, entertainment and Madhuri’s star power.
