KBC Host Amitabh Bachchan: "Be Proud Homemakers!" Big B's Oct 5 Message Goes Viral

Ever tuned into Kaun Banega Crorepati, Season 17, and really listened to how people answer questions? Amitabh Bachchan, the iconic host, definitely did. He observed something quite striking, something that sparked a powerful reflection on women’s roles.

You see, when women in the KBC audience were asked about their profession, many would respond with “मैं एक गृहणी हूँ” (I’m a homemaker). But here’s the catch: they’d say it in a low, almost hesitant tone. A “dabe swar mein”, as Bachchan described it. It wasn’t the proud declaration he felt such a vital role deserved.

So, on Sunday night, October 5, 2025, Big B took to his blog. He poured out his thoughts, urging women everywhere to declare their homemaker status with confidence and absolute pride! Why the emphasis? Because managing a home, he stressed, is far from an easy gig. It’s a non-stop, demanding job that often goes unappreciated.

Think about it for a second. You’re the one taking care of the entire household. You manage the schedule, nurture your spouse, raise the children, and yes, you’re cooking for the family. This isn’t just a list of chores; it’s a constant stream of responsibilities, requiring immense dedication and skill. It’s a huge contribution!

The Realities Exposed by Lockdown

But honestly, it wasn’t always so clear to everyone. Here’s a powerful point Bachchan made: the COVID-19 pandemic became a massive eye-opener. During those lockdowns, when many men found themselves taking on household tasks, they finally got a real taste of the extensive work involved. It truly exposed just how much goes into running a home, making them understand firsthand the effort and dedication required.

Bachchan’s heartfelt message aims to shine a spotlight on, acknowledge, and ultimately celebrate the often-underestimated contributions of homemakers. He calls “India’s daughters” the country’s greatest wealth, and this blog post was his way of honoring them. But wait, there’s more!

In the very same powerful post on October 5, 2025, Bachchan also gave a huge shout-out to the Indian women’s cricket team. They’d just achieved an incredible feat, defeating Pakistan by a massive 88 runs in the Women’s Cricket World Cup! That’s right, a victory that truly showcased their talent and determination.

So, what’s your take? Do you think society truly gives homemakers the recognition they deserve? And is it high time we all started embracing this incredibly important role with the pride it warrants? Let’s get the conversation going!
