Stani Bogat
Stani bogat[1] (Bulgarian: Кой иска да стане богат?, romanized: Koy iska da stane bogat?, lit. 'Who wants to become rich?', shortened to Стани богат, 'Become rich') is a Bulgarian game show based on the original British format of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. The show is hosted by Mihail Bilalov,[1] previously by Niki Kanchev.[2] The top winning prize is 100,000 Bulgarian lev[3] and may be reached by answering 15 questions correctly. There are three "lifelines," which offer help to the player during the game. They are 50/50, phone a friend, and ask the audience. As of 2022, no person has won 100,000 leva (although Asen Angelov won, he was stripped of his prize).[4] There is one milestone at 500 leva and a floating one, a change from 2021.[5]

Notable participants
Asen Angelov
On 13 June 2002, Asen Angelov answered the 15th question correctly and won 100 000 leva. Two weeks later he was forced to return the money after the production company found out that his daughter works at Nova Television.[6] Angelov stated that ''his daughter is not a member of the family, since she is 27 years old''[4] but later said that he will not argue over the money, and returned it voluntarily.
Lyubomir Lazarov
On 7 April 2023, journalist Lyubomir Lazarov opened the 15th question for 100 000 leva. He eventually gave up and walked away with the runner-up prize of 50 000 leva. This is the 3rd time the last question has been opened overall and the first time with host Mihail Bilalov.[7]
