Amitabh Bachchan made waves on Kaun Banega Crorepati by asking a question about the city's new mayor, Zohran Mamdani. Contestant Renu Devi Shukla was stumped by the question, 'Which Indian filmmaker is the mother of Zohran Mamdani, the mayor-elect of New York City?' After using the 50-50 lifeline, she correctly chose Mira Nair as the answer and won ₹5 lakh. The question sparked a buzz on social media among Zohran's followers, with one user commenting, 'His mom is such an icon too.' Another noted, 'It's satisfying to hear his name pronounced correctly.' A third joked, 'He's officially made it.' Zohran Mamdani made history by becoming the first South Asian and Muslim to be elected as the mayor of New York City. Born in Uganda, he moved to the US with his family at the age of 7 and became a naturalized citizen in 2018. He thanked his parents, Mira Nair and Mahmood Mamdani, as well as his wife Rama Duwaji, for their support during his swearing-in ceremony on January 1.
