Actor, singer and fine artist Jamal Shah likes to do things his own way. Although he doesn`t usually make portraits, his bust of Pakistan`s Nobel laureate Dr Abdus Salam, which he`s made as a tribute to the scientist, was recently unveiled by the director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Yukiya Amano, at the agency`s 61st general conference.

Jamal S, it seemed, felt pleased when a Pakistani diplomat in Turkey tweeted about it and the artist wrote, `This is where my sculpture is displayed.` Great stuff, sir. . . and great tribute!
