Designer glasses for SRK

Heard stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt and Bobby Deol have an envious sunglass collection.

Well, well, Shah Rukh Khan is one up. The actor, according to reliable sources, has the best collection of reading glasses also. At home in spacious Mannat, that spans across a bungalow and six floors behind, Bollywood’s superstar has prescription reading glasses lying in every room that he visits.

Those who have interacted closely with the Bollywood Badshah say, “He doesn’t have to carry his glasses from room to room or wear them around his neck like most people do. Whichever desk or table he sits at for reading, signing cheques or for joining his kids in a video-game, he has a pair of prescription glasses lying within reach.’’ No wonder, people talk of stars seeing the world through rose-tinted glasses.
