The answer lies in the question itself.

The answer lies in the question itself.

The funny thing about this question is that the trick question is effective only if you are fluent in Hindi.

Some of the most viral videos we find on social media are those that challenge the intellect of the public. Sometimes they are asked basic general knowledge questions, while other times they are clever brain teasers. One video goes viral on the internet where the influencer asks two women a very simple but genius trick question.

The video was shared on Instagram by the account @rajkandaofficial. He asks in Hindi, “Sher jungle ka raja hai, magar rehta kahan hai? (Sher is the king of the jungle, but where does he live?)”. The woman on the left then repeats the question with a very confused look on her face and replies, “Jungle mei hi rehta hai (He only lives in the jungle).” The caption of the clip underlines the previous question, “Magar rehta kahan hai? (Where does he live?)”.

The funny thing about this question is that the trick question only works if you are fluent in Hindi. Netizens are sharing their answers in the comments section below, some are right, others are just making fun of the clip. The first user wrote, “Paani me rehta hai (Lives in water).” A second user wrote, “Gufa mei rehta hai sher (The lion lives in a cave).” A third user wrote, “Sher gufa mei rehta hai magar pani mei (The lion lives in a cave while Magar lives in water).”

So, if you were able to guess the correct answer, it shows that you understood what the question was about. And if not, then read on. The correct answer is ‘magar’, which means crocodile in Hindi and can also be used as a conjunction in a Hindi sentence. So, when the man asks where ‘magar’ lives, he means where the habitat of a crocodile is, while also asking about the habitat of a lion. The video has been liked over 100,000 times and viewed over 6 million times.
