A girl uttering Tu Mera Hero No 1 to a boy, damsel in distress shouting “Bhagwan ke liye mujhe chhod do” was Shah Rukh Khan’s Bollywood addition to his vision to the capital of France. King Khan singed the sketch as “ In Paris do as Indian’s do.”

“The rare sketch is more like a doodle-cum-drawing of Shah Rukh’s visit to Paris. It provides a unique insight into the mind of a cinematic superstar in the making. Though estimated conservatively between Rs 1.2 lakh to R1.80 lakh, it is expected to sell for more.” Osian founder-chairman Neville Tuli told Mid-Day.
