Profile: Sanoj, an engineer, aspires to be an IAS officer
To note, Sanoj is the son of a farmer, and hails from a small village in Bihar. He did his schooling from Jahanabad. After completing his B.Tech, he has been working as an Assistant Commandant for two years now. However, Sanoj has some big plans in life. This young engineer from Bihar aspires to be an IAS officer, and wants to serve the society.
Himanshu Dhuria quit the show before winning Rs. 1 crore
Earlier, a 19-year-old trainee pilot, Himanshu Dhuria, had also made it to the Rs. 1cr-worth question. While hopes were high about him being the first crorepati of KBC 11, Himanshu bowed out before taking the leap, and went home with Rs. 50L. Last month, a labor inspector from Madhya Pradesh, Charna Gupta, also did the same, and chose to quit at the 15th question.
Ajay-Atul have modified KBC's iconic tune, 'Flip the question' reintroduced
Interestingly, KBC, which has been ruling the Indian television for 19 years now, came with new elements in Season 11. For instance, its iconic tune has been revamped by music directors Ajay-Atul. The lifelines also witnessed a new addition, as 'Flip the question' was reintroduced this season. This option allows contestants, sitting on the hot seat, to replace the current question with another one.
Participate and win prizes at home through 'KBC Play Along'
Just like its previous season, KBC 11 also gives viewers an opportunity to play the game, through the KBC Play Along option on Sony LIV app. Notably, they can win daily prizes by maintaining their positions on the leader-board of the app. However, unlike the tenth season, this time the winners of KBC Play Along will feature on the show during the finale week.
