Girish Rao caught up with the star's father, Salim Khan for his reaction.

Did you get to speak to Salman?

Yes, I spoke to him over the phone after the wax statue was unveiled. The event went off pretty well.

The event calls for a celebration.

I'm no different from any other father of this world. Parents feel happy when their children succeed in life. Obviously, I am very happy.

Did you foresee any particular attire for Salman? 

I have not reached the stage where I advice Salman about his dressing. That said, I think his dressing sense looked pretty normal to me.  

Do you plan to visit Madame Tussauds?

I can go and visit that place any time but that's not important for me. I saw his wax statue on television and that's sufficient for me. If I am in London, then I will surely go and see the statue.
