I watch the British version 'Are you smarter than a ten year old?' and it’s the hosts that make the show funny. I'm sure SRK will do well; he's very witty and fun, and it seems like he gets on with kids.

I watch ‘Are you smarter than a 5th grader?' with my son. I think that this will be good. He will be able to see the show both in english and hindi. He is also a great fan of Shahrukh Khan. For him Shahrukh is the best and he will enjoy watching his big screen hero on small screen.
