Shah Rukh, definitely pass!

While SRK gets ready for his new quiz show, Mumbai Mirror (MM) decided to do a quick GK test with him.

And guess what?

SRK scored 8.5/10!

Heres how:

MM: There is a poem: When you are happy and you know it.... complete the poem.
SRK: Hmmm… I don't know (Right answer: Clap your hands)

MM: How did mountains get formed?
SRK: Some were formed when the earth's crust was folded, some were formed when the crust broke and the parts jutted out.

MM: Why can't we see stars in daytime?
SRK: Because the sun is also a star, the light of the sun is so intense that the white stars cannot be seen; stars show up clearly only against the darkness of the night

MM: Why don't stars fall from the sky?
SRK: They do fall; they are far from the earth. When they fall, it takes a long time to burn out.

MM: Why don't oil and water mix?
SRK: Because water is heavy and oil is light. Therefore they are immiscible. Oil will always float in water even if you shake it hard.

MM: If all rivers empty into the sea why doesn't the sea overflow?
SRK: Water from the sea turns into vapour and rises into the air

MM: 'My very educated mother just showed us nine planets in this sentence'. What does this mean?
SRK: This sentence gives away the names of the nine planets- Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto. Take the first letter of the first nine words of the sentence and you'll know how I got it.

MM: Why has God given us two legs, two hands, two ears, two eyes...but only heart?
SRK: He has given the second one to someone else; one has to go and find it (smiles).

MM: Who started the comic series Tinkle?
SRK: Anant Pai

MM: Name five characters from Tinkle.
SRK: I think that I can name four... Tantri The Mantri, Kaalia The Crow, Shikhari Shambhu (SRK, if you had remembered only Supandi, Naseeruddin Hooja, we wouldn't have deleted half mark here… and you would have scored 9/10).
