From ‘Nani ki Dawaai ki Dukaan’ to attempting 1 CR: Pankajini Dash’s Inspiring Journey on Kaun Banega
This week on Kaun Banega Crorepati 16, hosted by the legendary Amitabh Bachchan, viewers will be introduced to Pankajini Dash, a pharmacist and housewife from Orissa, who will be seen on the hot seat, attempting the 1 crore question. Pankajini runs a small, well-known shop in her locality, though no one knows its official name; the shop is affectionately called ‘Nani ki Dawaai ki Dukaan’ by the locals, a place where people trust her for remedies and advice.
Pankajini Dash’s journey has not been easy, but through it all, her son has been her unwavering support. He has been her pillar of strength, always encouraging her to keep going. “For all those who have pointed fingers and tried to demotivate you, today you’ve shown them that you’ve made it,” he tells her proudly. Despite facing years of setbacks and losing hope after 24 long years of trying, Pankajini’s son never stopped believing in her. He constantly reminded her, “Good things take time,” and pushed her to keep moving forward, always motivating her with the simple yet powerful words, “You can do it.”
