After delivering his lecture as a Chubb Fellow at Yale on April 12, Shah Rukh Khan regaled the gathered crowd with his signature quips and also shook a leg with student and alumni on stage.

He even got Jeffrey Brenzel, Yale dean of undergraduate admissions to dance to the tune of Chammak Challo, one of the most popular songs from his last release Ra.One.
