Amitabh Bachchan is a legendary Indian actor who has been hosting the popular quiz show Kaun Banega Crorepati (the Indian version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?) for many seasons. The show often features conversations between Bachchan and contestants that go beyond just quiz questions, sometimes touching on social issues.

From your message, it seems that during a recent episode of KBC (possibly season 16), there was an incident where a contestant referred to unmarried women as "bojh" (which translates to "burden" in English). Amitabh Bachchan took issue with this characterization and corrected the contestant, telling them to "Listen carefully."

This interaction highlights a few important points:

3. The potential of popular media platforms, like KBC, to address social issues and promote progressive thinking.

4. The importance of language and how we refer to different groups in society.

Without more specific details about the exchange, I can't comment on exactly what was said or the full context of the interaction. However, Bachchan used his position as a respected public figure to challenge a problematic view about women.

If you'd like to discuss this topic further or explore any specific aspects of gender issues in India or the role of media in social change, I'd be happy to engage in that conversation. Would you like me to elaborate on any particular point?
