"It is said that what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas," an excited Kher told PTI.
But this honour by the State of Nevada will not stay only in Vegas but will travel to the world and to my beloved country and prove my philosophy of "life mein kuch bhi ho sakta hai," he said.
Kher is off to San Fracisco for last three performances before ending his US tour and flying back to India next week. He will perform in San Francisco on Friday and Saturday, before winding his last show of the tour in Los Angeles on Sunday.
