Superstar Shah Rukh Khan will soon add another feather to his already decorated cap.

France has decided to honour the actor with the 'Legion Of France', one of the highest civilian awards.

French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius will present the award to the superstar next week.

The award will be presented in Mumbai, after the minister's visit to New Delhi on June 29. Fabius is scheduled to meet External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj before the award ceremony.

SRK will be the second Bollywood actor to receive this honour; Amitabh Bachchan being the first.

The award is conferred for excellent civil or military conduct.
