Taking a couple of days off from cheering on his team, the Kolkata Knight Riders, in the IPL, Shah Rukh Khan will be in Paris tomorrow morning to unveil his waxwork model at the 126-year-old Grevin Museum in Grand Boulevard.
A statement from the Grevin, which calls itself “a temple devoted to the glory of history”, said: “The Indian actor, famous worldwide and an idol in his own country, has done us the great honour of travelling all the way from India for the unveiling of his waxwork image, created in the Grévin workshops.”
Actually, he will be travelling all the way from London where Shah Rukh, along with Salman Khan, Gulshan Grover, Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor, entertained audiences yesterday in one of those “aashbo, dekhbo, khub paisha banabo re” Bollywood concerts.
Stéphane Barret, the Grevin sculptor who took Shah Rukh’s vital measurements with accurate callipers in London last year and scrutinised the star’s model at Madame Tussauds, jokingly told The Telegraph: “I think mine is better. But getting Shah Rukh’s expression right was very difficult.”
