Shah Rukh Khan to have a wax statue in Paris Barely a year after his wax statue was unveiled at Madame Tussauds, London, Paris's Grevin wax museum will present Bollywood
superstar Shah Rukh Khan's wax statue next month. This will make the King Khan the second Indian celebrity after Mahatma
Gandhi to have a wax statue in Grevin and the first Bollywood star to have two wax statues in the two most prestigious wax
museums worldwide.
Stating this, Grevin's marketing director Frederic Gouguidis said that this was the outcome of its exclusive partnership with
the travel major, Cox and Kings, in the Indian market. Shah Rukh Khan is extremely popular in France with a huge fan
following and the wax statue would give Indians another reason to travel to that country, he added. Paris Convention and
Visitors Bureau managing director Paul Roll said that Paris is a hot destination among Indian tourists. "Last year, over
300,000 Indians visited France, the second largest number after China," Roll said. |
