Mumbai/IBNS: Acting legend Amitabh Bachchan, who is India's favourite show host, is set to return on TV with the new season of quiz show Kaun Banega Crorepati.

In the promo unveiled by the makers, Bachchan announced the new season will premiere on August 11.

The promo shows a probable houseowner insulting a service worker over his so-called background and asks him to wait outside. But the man retaliated with a befitting reply and took a dig at him by paying him for medicine.

The show will be telecasted at 9 pm every Monday-Friday on Sony Entertainment Television and anytime on Sony Liv.

On films front, the 82-year-old was last seen in Nag Ashwin's Kalki 2898 AD, a science fiction film.

The film also starred Deepika Padukone and Prabhas alongside Bachchan.
