Sunny Deol gets trolled for claiming his IQ exceeds 160, netizens compare 'Gadar 2' actor to Albert Einstein

Bollywood actor Sunny Deol, who is basking in the success of his latest release 'Gadar 2', recently made a surprising statement about his Intelligence Quotient (IQ) that has left the internet in splits.

During a candid conversation, in a recent episode of 'The Ranveer Show', Deol dropped a bombshell, stating his IQ exceeds 160.

While discussing his childhood, the 65-year-old actor revealed that he had battled dyslexia, a condition that affects reading, writing, and spelling skills in children.


When asked about the challenges he faced during this period, the actor confidently declared, "Mera IQ bhot high tha. I had a very high IQ because school main unhone mujhe test kiya tha, so my IQ was over 160 something."

For context, the renowned physicist Albert Einstein, often regarded as a genius, is believed to have had an IQ of around 160. Generally, anyone with an IQ above 140 is considered a genius, while the average person's IQ is around 100.


Naturally, Deol's claim raised eyebrows and sparked a flurry of humorous responses on social media.

One amused user quipped, "Einstein’s IQ was 160."


"I already knew Sunny Deol paaji has a 160 IQ... Only a 160 IQ guy can think quickly to pull a hand pump in the middle of a fight where hundreds of people are coming at you with swords—absolute genius," another user said.

A playful comment read, "I believe Sunny Deol has an IQ of 160. Who else can give a handpump uprooting blockbuster at the age of 65? Gadar2."


While the declaration made by Deol led to a wave of trolling online, it's worth noting that IQ measurements can vary.

Even Einstein's IQ remains unverified through an official test. An average IQ score typically falls between 85 and 155, while someone with an IQ of 160-179 is considered "exceptionally gifted," according to Verywell Mind.
