Megastar Amitabh Bachchan got a crash course in Gen Z vocabulary from Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 18 contestant Aarya Sahani during a light-hearted exchange on the quiz show.
Aarya, who aspires to pursue a career in medicine, introduced Bachchan to several terms commonly used by Gen Z. The actor-host said he wanted to understand the language better so he could communicate with his grandchildren at home.
“Bhaisahab yeh jo Gen Z hain unki bhasha badi ajeeb hain kyuki humare nati jo hain ghar pe aise hi bhasha ka upayog karte hain. Ek kaam kijiye Sir humko do se chaar shabd bata dijiye jisse hum unko chith kar dein,” Bachchan said, asking Aarya to teach him a few words that could help him impress his grandchildren.
Aarya began with the phrase “clock it”, explaining that in the context of the game, it could be used in place of “lock it” to mean there was no further discussion.
Bachchan gave the phrase his own humorous interpretation, wondering why contestants could not simply use “lock it”.
Aarya then introduced the word “suss”, explaining that it is a shortened form of “suspicious”. He gave a KBC example involving a contestant looking towards Bachchan for a hint and said the actor could describe the contestant’s look as “suss”.
Bachchan again responded with humour, joking about what might happen if someone from his own generation were told not to “give suss”.
The third term introduced by Aarya was “Gwop”, which he described as referring to winning a large amount of money. Giving the show’s top prize as an example, he said a contestant winning Rs 7 crore could be described as having won a lot of “Gwop”.
The exchange left Bachchan amused as he admitted that he would need some time to get accustomed to the new vocabulary.
