His win in the popular show gained him overnight stardom, making him a household name. Recently, he was introduced in a segment to honour 25 years of the quiz show, leaving fans surprised with his physical transformation with age.
The show's makers recently released a video featuring Nawathe. In it, he talks about Kaun Banega Crorepati's 25-year milestone and his return to the show. Looking sharp in a formal suit, glasses, and grey hair, Nawathe seemed every bit the dignified gentleman. In the clip, he expressed his astonishment at the overwhelming love and admiration he received from people after winning the show. Even years later, people still mention his KBC win when they meet him. He also shared a valuable piece of advice with the younger generation, emphasizing the importance of developing a reading habit.
"Ghar waapsi ki jo feeling hoti hai, woh hai. 25 saal bahut bada period hota hai. 25 saal ke baad yahan aake mujhe bahut jyada khushi ho rahi hai. KBC ne mujhe bahut recognition diya. Paisa toh mila hi, bahut adulation mila aur bahut logo ka pyaar mila (It feels like a homecoming. 25 years is a long time. Coming back here after 25 years makes me very happy. KBC gave me a lot of recognition. I received money, a lot of adulation, and a lot of love from people),” he was heard saying in the clip.
On the professional front, Nawathe has been leading the Corporate Social Responsibility initiative at the esteemed Mahindra Group since 2019. He has earned significant recognition in the corporate world. He is blessed with two sons.
