SRK unveiled at Madame Tussauds!

Madame Tussauds witnessed a gala event to welcome Shah Rukh Khan, as his statue found abode in the prestigious Madame Tussauds wax
museum. The long haul came to an end on 3rd April 2007, when his statue was unveiled before an excited audience.
Shah Rukh flew down to the London museum with wife Gauri Khan. The proud duo posed next to his wax statue, which looked like the exact replica
of Khan, thanks to the precise measurements of his physical features taken earlier this year. Shah Rukh experienced a grand reception from the
management.
As a part of the promotions, Madame Tussauds designed a typical Bollywood-style poster saying “Shah Rukh Khan stars in Madame Tussauds”.
The visitors had a chance to get their personalized copy of the Bollywood poster, after being photographed with the actor. Whether they would
have been lucky enough to pose with SRK in person instead of his wax statue is uncertain! A 50-minute biopic showcasing Khan’s journey to
stardom was screened after the statue was uncovered. All in awe of Khan, the museum’s library also stocked his pictorial biography Still Reading
Khan.
SRK’s wax statue stands tall in the museum now. It is hard to distinguish the real Khan from his imitation. The similarity between the two is simply
outstanding!
