KBC 17: Vadodara's Rudra Chitte Snoops Dad's Phone; Big B Calls Him 'Pakke Gujju'

Ever peeked at your parent’s phone? You know, just to see what’s up? Well, imagine actually finding out about your own surprise birthday party that way! That’s exactly what happened with a 10-year-old on Kaun Banega Crorepati 17, and trust me, host Amitabh Bachchan couldn’t stop laughing.

Meet Rudra Chitte, a bright 10-year-old from Vadodara, Gujarat. He was on KBC 17, and he totally stole the show. Not just for his smarts, but for his hilariously relatable habit: he checks his parents’ mobile messages!

The Surprise Party Spoiler

Yeah, you heard that right. Rudra told Big B how he “snooped” on his dad’s phone. And what did he find? The plans for his very own surprise birthday bash! Talk about an unexpected discovery, right?

Amitabh Bachchan, usually the one with all the questions, was absolutely amused. He just loved Rudra’s honesty and wit. Big B playfully remarked, “Itna pata chala ke aap pakke Gujju ho” – basically saying, “Now I know you’re a true Gujarati!” It was a moment of pure gold, highlighting Rudra’s quick thinking and playful nature.

More Than Just a Phone-Checker

But honestly, Rudra is so much more than just a phone-snooper. This kid’s got layers! He even taught Amitabh Bachchan the trending “aura farming” dance. Can you imagine Big B doing a viral dance step? Yeah, it happened!

And there’s more. Rudra shared his dream of developing an app to block all those annoying spam advertisements. We all need that, don’t we? So, this kid’s thinking big, trying to solve real-world problems.

He’s also got a pretty cheeky side hustle. Rudra revealed he charges his parents for household chores! Think about it: massages for his tired dad? Buying milk for his mom? Yep, he’s got a price list. It’s pretty adorable, and you just know his parents must be wrapped around his little finger.

A Breath of Fresh Air?

Here’s the thing, Rudra’s witty and adorable banter really stood out. Especially when you compare it to the buzz around another young contestant, Ishit Bhatt, who some folks thought seemed a bit “overconfident.” Rudra brought a different vibe, a refreshing honesty that audiences loved.

So, what do you think? Is it okay for kids to check their parents’ phones? Or is Rudra just a super smart, super observant kid who stumbled upon a birthday secret? It definitely sparked a conversation, and you can bet everyone in Vadodara is proud of their little “pakke Gujju.”
