Madame Tussauds has a display of waxworks of historical and royal figures, film stars, sports stars and infamous murderers. It is owned and operated by Merlin Entertainments. The actor took Facebook to publicly thank the organisers to let his team shoot at the place. He posted-
Thanks Madame Tussauds. Allowing us to shoot Fan with all ‘your’ stars & our star Maneesh. Very gracious of you. 1st film to shoot in your premises.

The entire team recently celebrated the Croatia wrap up. Pictures of Shah Rukh running around the crowded streets running in a tuxedo have surfaced online. A special VFX team has been appointed by the actor and Red Chilies to make both characters as real as possible. SRK even went abroad late last year to get a digital 3D face scan for the film. On returning back to Mumbai, the actor is expected to shoot a small portion of his other film ‘Raees’, before he begins shooting for Rohit Shetty’s ‘Dilwale’.
