Think Rediff should get it's facts right...Atleast when I visited Madame Tussauds I had the oppurtunity to have a look at the wax statues of Gandhiji,Indira Gandhi,P.V.narasimha Rao and amitabh...so how is shahrukh only the third indian...or by celebrity do they mean movie stars??? please excuse my ignorance

Yep I agree. The comment by rediff "Only the third Indian to make it into the famed museum of celebrity sculptures" is not correct.

If you read correctly, it says - ' Only the third Indian actor......', so maybe you should read it before commenting!!!!!

Maybe you cant read english very well, or maybe you cant just read the work 'actor'.....Here is the text again, copied & pasted :))
"Only the third Indian actor to make it into the famed museum of celebrity sculptures, Khan follows Amitabh Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai in being honoured thus."

Hey u Blind female, its okay if u wanna add the word 'actor' on to ur copy paste sentence, but b4 u do read the goddamn line once again. Females, r they so foolish????
The wax really brings the age in shah Rukh. It looks like he's 60 plus.Whoever made this, they cud've done a little better as the star being a perfectionist deserves a perfect statue

Perfectionist???? haha... I feel the statue is the correct depiction of SRK. Both are NOT perfect.
THIS MESSEGE IS TO SAY THAT SRK GOT HIS DUE LATE. HE SHOULD HAVE GOT IT BEFORE AB AND AISHWARYA. IT WAS SRK WHO WAS INSTRUMENTAL IN GIVING INDIAN CINEMA THE GLOBAL APPEAL MUCH BEFORE AISHWARYA AND MR. BACHCHAN OFCOURSE. AS FOR THE PEOPLE WHO REGULARLY WRITE TO THIS DISCUSSION BOARD THEY HAVE MADE A HABIT TO ABUSE SRK. THEY DONT ABUSE SRK BUT GIVE ALL OF READERS THE INSIGHT INTO THEIR DIRTY BRAINS.
Havent seen Gandhiji in real, but what i have seen of him in photos n text books, the statue in Tussauds looks different n very dark. Aish looks plastic, like u have barbies n other dolls, it doest look like a living human being. Amitabh is a mixture of agnipath days and today, so his statue is young looking but with a white french beard. Jennifer Aniston too didnt look like jennifer. Jennifer Lopez looks too young[may b it was made long back] Princess Diana's statue is ok. So it was expected that SRK's statue is also going to b not his real self....the statue is too chubby. But i think it happens because they require the celebrity whose statue is to b waxed to visit them just 4-5 times, i mean for a portrait we constantly need the model in front of us,agreed its not possible when making a statue but how come they make the statue with only 4-5 references to the original?

yeah,i think that is the real reason that they call the concerned person only 5 times. So whatever you measure or see about that person is right and teh rest a guess work. The way Aishwarya's face has been made in the UK museum, it really looks as if they have used the plastic available for making dolls. Some of the statues look real & you can think of taking snaps n fooling someone[ only for a minute because everyone knows about M Tussauds now], u cant think of doing this with Aish,Jennifor A, Naomi campbel, Amitabh and even Arnold Schwarzenneger
