KBC 17: Turner syndrome warrior Jigna wins ₹7.5 lakh
Jigna Mokaria, a Science and Maths teacher from Porbandar, Gujarat, took the hot seat on Kaun Banega Crorepati 17 and impressed Amitabh Bachchan with her strength and the aura she carries.
Living with Turner syndrome—a genetic condition that affects height—she's faced social bias and serious health issues since childhood but hasn't let that stop her from chasing her dreams.
