Check out the star's wax figure
Shah Rukh Khan has found a pride of place among the wax figures of the famous at the Madame Tussauds wax attraction at the Times Square here.
The 45-year-old star's wax figure was unveiled on August 12 amid a colourful performance by the Bollywood Axion dance troupe dancing to the soundtrack from his film 'My Name Is Khan', one of the highest-grossing Bollywood titles released in the US.
The actor already has a statue at Tussauds Los Angeles branch. His latest wax figure in New York placed in front of a replica of the Taj Mahal, is dressed in a sleek black suit and white button down shirt.
SRK is the latest addition to Madame Tussauds brightly-colored, fully-interactive 'Bollywood Zone,' which allows guests to feel as though they are on a Bollywood film set. Khan stands in a small room on the 9th floor and is the second waxwork to enter the Bollywood Zone at the Madame Tussauds in New York after Amitabh Bachchan was introduced last year.
The unveiling of SRK's wax figure coincided with the DVD release of 'My Name Is Khan', which is now available in stores for the suggested retail price of $27.98 in the US and $43.48 in Canada.
Described by US media as "A potent, energetic heart-tugger" (Los Angeles Times) and "an affecting fairy tale about the perils of goodness" (New York Times), the film relates the story of an Indian man with a unique way of looking at the world.
The protagonist Rizwan (Shah Rukh) moves to San Francisco and meets a vivacious single mother named Mandira (Kajol). They form a special bond and fall in love against all odds, but fate and tragedy conspire to tear them apart.
Just when it appears as though all hope is lost, Rizwan embarks on a remarkable journey across America to win back the love of his life.
