Bachchan to replace Khan on 'Millionaire'

Amitabh Bachchan has reportedly been asked to return as host of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? after replacement Shah Rukh Khan was dropped by its producers.

The Bollywood veteran hosted the first series but was forced to give up because of a serious illness.

Khan then took over hosting duties for the third series of Kaun Banega Crorepati?, as it is called in India.

Speaking to Mumbai Mirror, an insider said: "Bachchan and Shah Rukh, respectively, brought their distinct individuality on the table, but frankly speaking, Shah Rukh’s histrionics did not do go down well with the audience."

The show has been off the air since 2007, after the third series received a poor response.
