Shahrukh will test the intelligence of lovebirds Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan this Saturday. No doubt the episode will be breathtaking as Bollywood’s much talked about and controversial couple will be at the forefront of the audience.

Apart from the academic question-answer session, Saif and Kareena will be asked about some personal questions which they really feel embarrassed about answering. But Shahrukh does not let them go without reply. Some of their personal questions include, when did Saif first meet Kareena? How they fell in love? Do they fight with each other and what do they do when they are mad at each other?

The naughty and intelligent kids of Shahrukh’s patshala will be in full masti mood on that very episode and ended up asking questions that they are tired of clarifying to the media. They asked about Saif’s Tatoo and Kareena’s size zero. As usual, they will play for charity and Saif Ali Khan will donate the winning amount to HIV organization Naaz while Kareena will donate to St. Anthony’s Old Age Home, Bandra.

The fight for television viewership will reach fever pitch this weekend as Star Plus flags off its Shah Rukh Khan-hosted Kya aap paanchvi paas se tez hain show, clashing directly with the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) on Sony Max, which delivered record ratings in its opening weekend.

Star TV, under pressure with falling TRPs of its K-soaps, is betting big on Paanchvi Pass as its biggest show of the year. For Sony Max too, IPL is the biggest revenue generator this year. With IPL ratings expected to peak during weekends and Paanchvi Paas being a weekend property, the broadcasters are pulling out all stops to ensure that they don’t lose viewers to each other.

While Star would try to woo families, IPL is targeting new viewers like women and families through the T20 format. SET, on its part, is confident that it won’t lose out to Star. According to SET President Rohit Gupta  “While only time will tell whether audiences go away from IPL to other shows, the proof that IPL has caught on is in the numbers. Also, it’s not the first time that Shah Rukh Khan will be hosting a TV show.”

Shah Rukh Khan is back on TV to host television’s biggest entertainer ever, ‘Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain?’ It is a show, which has adult contestants testing their wits with a group of sprightly 10-year-olds.

Excited about hosting ‘Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain?’, Shah Rukh Khan says, “I was very keen to do this show because of the educational aspect attached to it, which has been an integral part our culture. Once the decision was made, Star Plus was the only television platform I could think, that could take me to every single television home in this country.”

Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain? is a television game show based on the international Mark Burnett format ‘Are you smarter than a 5th grader?’ where grade school level questions are put to adults from all walks of life, who are well heeled and confident and who attempt to relive school with success. The format originated in the United States, has launched successfully in 50 countries, and will now hit Indian television, courtesy Bulldog Media & Entertainment.

The essence of the show is the test that adults will be put to answer primary school questions, the pressure of going back to school and keeping their reputations intact. Even the likes of 2008 presidential candidates Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and Rudy Guiliani have turned down the offer to be the on show as contestants. Such is the pressure!
First time on Indian television, viewers will witness contestants win this whopping sum – Five Crores to answer up to Fifth Standard questions, just imagine…
