I m impressed only with Sushant in this Study Matter. Getting 7th Rank in AIEEE n studing at DCE n also being Olymapiad in physics is really a great thing in itself.

The article missed an important celebrity.

Kamaal rashid khan is gold medalist in aerospace engineering from IIT kanpur. He was working as a scientist for National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in USA. Shahrukh khan character in Swades was based on Kamaal khan real life. Interestingly shahrukh khan considers kamaal to be his guru and inspiration.
KRK left it all for his bigg boss career and
settled in dubai in a 10000 square feet stable, but he still gets water form france, milk from holland and kayam churna from india (because he can not digest milk from holland).

Nah..I don't think SRK should be in this list...because it's based on hierarchy of degrees. Though he's an academic genius, with being the topper of St. Columbus as well as topping Delhi university, he's just done his graduation. He's not completed the Masters.
