In a significant achievement, Shah Rukh Khan becomes the first Bollywood actor to have gold coins in his name at a French museum.
The Grevin Museum in Paris has honoured King Khan with its set of customized gold coins. It is a wax museum located on the Grands Boulevards on the right bank of the Seine River. This museum is renowned for its wax statues of celebrities, which include Bollywood stars like Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Ranveer Singh.
A paparazzi shared the update on Instagram with a photo of the coin featuring SRK’s likeness. They have felicitated Khan for his contributions to cinema with a specialized gold coin.

Besides, he is the second Indian to be honoured with a coin at the Grevin Museum, with only Mahatma Gandhi receiving the honour before him.
Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan has been immortalized in wax statues in the US, the UK, Germany, France, the Czech Republic, Thailand, India, Singapore and Australia. Apart from this, Shah Rukh Khan will also be awarded the prestigious Pardo alla Carriera at the 77th edition of the Locarno Film Festival.
On the work front, the 58-year-old megastar is currently busy with the upcoming action film ‘King’ in which he will be sharing the screen with his daughter Suhana, who made her debut with the streaming movie ‘The Archies,’ and Abhishek Bachchan.
Breaking a five-year hiatus from the big screen, in 2023, SRK had three big blockbuster releases – Pathaan, Jawan, and Dunki – smashing the box office.
