Question: According to the author’s opinion a few years before writing this article, which of the following appeared to be in store for KBC?
i. The show’s time was over
ii. The show was too refined to compete with other reality shows
iii. Shah Rukh Khan as the show host would take it to new heights
iv. The show’s viciousness was leading it, to its end
The first paragraph mentions, "....time for Kaun Banega Crorepati had come and gone." This supports statement 1. It also mentions," It had no backbiting intrigue.....nothing ever needed to be beeped out on it...." which supports statement 2. The other two statements do not find support in the passage.
Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
