King Khan Stands Tall at Madame Tussauds
Shahrukh Khan’s childhood dream has come true. Bollywood’s reigning superstar made it to Madame Tussauds in London, when he unveiled his wax statue among much fanfare. Accompanying him was his demure wife, Gauri Khan, who garlanded the Khan in wax. He is the third Bollywood star after Amitabh Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai to be honored thus. Dressed in the famous Dil Wale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge outfit, the statue comes alive and reminds you of the super-hit that starred Shahrukh and Kajol epitomizing their star-jodi power.
As reported, the statues of famous English footballer David Beckham and that of his wife Victoria had to make way for the King’s statue. Shahrukh is in glamorous company with the sexy Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, and the beautiful Jennifer Lopez keeping him company.
King Khan arrived at the prestigious museum in a Bentley Arnage, followed by a Bentley Azure, and walked the red carpet. The entire Baker Street was blocked to accommodate the Khan’s visit. The entourage made it to the first floor where Shahrukh’s waxwork is placed right next to that of Hollywood star, Will Smith. John Travolta’s statue too is at handshake distance.
Keeping in view Shahrukh Khan’s worldwide popularity and massive fan following, his statue has been accorded larger space with a plasma television running an audio-visual of the Bollywood superstar and a huge poster of his in Don forming the backdrop.
