Now for a Question whose answer Every Hyderabadi knows....... Long one though.read patiently......



Q:The last nizam of Hyderabad was known to be a rather shrewd and scheming kind of gent ... so, he went to this magnificent palace built by the courtier Kamal Khan, which was such a labour of love that Khan had his initials K.K. stamped on just about everything, walls, cups, saucers and all. So, the Nizam saw the place, and liked it so much, he began to very pointedly praise it. Kamal Khan took the (not too subtle) hint and immediately presented the palace to the Nizam. Now the problem was what to do with all the KK markings ... changing or defacing them would ruin the building. What was the solution?

Q.He is the brother of Zeus. After the overthow of their Father Cronus he drew lots with Zeus and Poseidon, another brother, for shares of the world. He had the worst draw and was made lord of the underworld, ruling over the dead. He is a greedy god who is greatly concerned with increasing his subjects. Those whose calling increase the number of dead are seen favorably. The Erinnyes are welcomed guests. He is exceedingly disinclined to allow any of his subjects leave ?

Last One of the day/night:Based on a bamboo exercise toy that the founders of the company WhamO saw on a trip to Australia, this toy notched up worldwide sales of more than 100 million within 6 months of its launch in 1958. The Japanese banned its use in public on the grounds of impropriety. Name this toy.
