He is the first Bollywood actor to have a statue at the French Graven Museum.

There's new honour for Shah Rukh Khan in the offing. The Bollywood Badshah will be the first Indian actor to find a place at the French Graven Museum in Paris. A statue of the actor is set to be installed at the museum soon. SRK admitted that he felt honoured. He is already cast in wax and standing at Madame Tussauds in London alongwith other Bollywood actors like Amitabh and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. And among his other recent honours is the Officier dans l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (Officer of the Order of Arts and Letters) by the French government for his prolific career and his contribution to the development of Indo-French cooperation in the field of cinema .

The French Graven Museum has statues of Salman Rushdie and writer and social activist Mahashweta Devi. SRK is busy shooting for his films in the city. Last week, while attending the premiere of the film Jai Jagannath, he escaped with a few bruises and scratches on his arms, after a glass door shattered due to the media frenzy over there.
