How Shah Rukh Khan Won April Fool's Day

New Delhi: When better than All Fool's Day to play the fool and do foolish things? Shah Rukh Khan, the fan-anointed Badshah of Bollywood, set aside his crown on April 1 to assume the role of court jester. As part of publicity for his new film Fan, SRK accepted a series of challenges set by his followers on Twitter.

Or did he? Did he really eat a cake without using his hands? Solve a Rubik's Cube in seconds flat? Do 300 push-ups in one go? And, umm, sneeze?

SRK might have promised to do "anything" for his fans but let nobody forget that it was April Fool's Day. Here's how Shah Rukh Khan won the day.
