The contestants were still unsure about the answer, so they used an audience poll and chose option B. Karun Nair was chosen, which is right.

The question is- ‘Which painter was invited to make posters for the Haripura session of the Congress in 1938?’ The options are-

The contestant used the lifeline 50-50 and chose option D. Nandlal Bose, which proved to be correct. He got stuck on the question of Rs 25 lakh. He didn’t even have any lifeline left. The question is- The ‘Wallace Line’ is an imaginary boundary that divides which of the following countries into different biodiversity areas? The options are-

B.Haiti
C. Indonesia
D.Madagascar
Contestant Siddharth quit the game on the 13th question of Rs 25 lakh. He returned home after winning Rs 12.50 lakh. The correct answer to this question is option C. Indonesia.
