Monday’s Movie Trivia of the day!  
What supernatural thriller released in 1999 is about a young boy who claims
he can see dead people and the psychologist trying to help him?
 

   Answer:  The correct answer was The Sixth Sense! “The Sixth Sense” came out in 1999 and was written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan, which established Shyamalan as a mainstream filmmaker. The story centers on Malcolm Crowe, a child psychologist played by Bruce Willis, who is trying to help a troubled young boy named Cole Sear, portrayed by Haley Joel Osment. Cole confides that he can see and communicate with dead people, a reveal that profoundly shapes both his life and Malcolm’s understanding of his own. (Yeah, I know you know the ending, but I promised no spoilers!)

Emperor Akbar once ruled over India. He was a wise and intelligent ruler, and he had in his court the Nine Gems, his nine advisors, who were each known for a particular skill. One of these Gems was Birbal, known for his wit and wisdom. The story below is one of the examples of his wit. Do you have it in you to find out the answer?

Once Emperor Akbar ordered a horse to be delivered to Birbal so that he could easily move about the kingdom.

The stable-keeper however, was extremely jealous of Birbal, and decided to deliver a sick and weak horse to him. The horse was delivered to Birbal’s stable. The next morning, when Birbal went to proudly leave his house on a horse, he found the horse was dead. Looking at the weak and frail horse, he understood what must have happened. However he could not insult the Emperor or his gift, so he kept silent.

Unfortunately for him, the Emperor observed him entering the palace grounds on foot and, when he entered the court, the Emperor immediately questioned him about the horse.

What was Birbal’s diplomatic and accurate reply?
