On the show, Amitabh Bachchan, who was moved by the child's condition decided to make a monetary donation towards the cause. In a new promo video by Sony Entertainment Television on Instagram, Amitabh said in Hindi, "Ladies and gentlemen, Farah is playing for a 17-month-old child named Ayaansh, who is suffering from an illness." The video then gives a glimpse of Ayaansh's mother explaining her child's condition.

A tearful Farah said in Hindi, "By the time Ayaansh turns two, there's a medicine called Zolgensma, which is the world's most expensive injection. It costs ₹16 crore. And it could save his life. We want to save this child, sir."

"I don't know if I should say this, but Farah, I would like to contribute personally as well. I will tell you the amount later, I don't want to discuss it here," Amitabh said. The actor also urged viewers to come forward and help.
