WEIRD KBC FACTS

By

We all know KBC is Good Business.

But have you ever pondered...

How Good....????

Any guesses? Let's see...

Airtel is charging Rs.6/- per SMS sent for this contest.

Assuming there are only 100 entries from say 10 cities of some 20 districts and 20 states...

6(Rs/SMS) x 100(entries) x 10(cities) x 20(districts) x 20(states) = 6

x 100 x 10 x 20 x 20 = Rs.24,00,000

24 lakhs in 20 minutes.

(People trying for the 2 lakhs cash prize)

Imagine what if 1000 entries try out from 100 cities?

The figure simply grows by 2 more zeroes and yields a whopping 24 Crores!!!!

And it does not stop there...

In practice it could be another multiple of 100 or a multiple of 1000 on an average.

In that case it is 24 x 100crores earnings in just 20 minutes on every episode!!!

And the prize money: A mere 2 crore..

(and from whose pocket?)

Smart Business By Siddharth Basu!

And the best part of this calculation is just the SMS earning!!

What about the Ad money?

A rough annual profit calculation goes like this:

2400 x 5 x 4) (episode/month) x 12 = 5,76,000 crores.

Let even 50% get dissolved in taxes and other payments, still you will be left with (which includes even the meagre 480 crores of prize money i.e.if every episode bags 2 crore prize)!

2,88,000-crores profit !!! (only from SMS)

Simple Question:

"KAUN BANEGA CROREPATI"

and your options are---

A) SONY TV

B) AIRTEL

C) AMITABH BACHAN

D) SIDDHARTH BASU

Computerji iska jawab bataiye....

Ans: All FOUR..!!!!

PS:

Now you know why AB gets all emotional when the episodes end...........

weird Monster Jellyfish Take Aim at Japan

By
What’s 6 feet wide, weighs 440 pounds, and can ruin your whole day? If you’re a Japanese fisherman, the answer is weird monster jellyfish named Nomura’s jellyfish ( Nemopilema nomurai ), or, as the Japanese call it, echizen kurage . The gigantic creature can wreak havoc on fishing nets and their contents, destroying the nets and poisoning the catch. Even nuclear powerplants aren’t safe: Reports describe the jellyfish being sucked into pumps that draw seawater to cool the reactors.   Echizen kurage have shown up in Japanese waters in increasing numbers in recent years. The population surge of 2005 was particularly bad, affecting the salmon , yellowtail , and anchovy fisheries . But the mass of them gathering now in the Yellow Sea of China is the biggest ever, and eventually ocean currents will deliver them to Japan’s doorstep.
