New Delhi, July 23, (TNS): Deepika Padukone will soon get a wax statue at the Madame Tussauds museums in London and New Delhi, the actor said in a Facebook live video from the British capital. Deepika follows in the footsteps of Bollywood stars such as Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif to be immortalised in wax at the popular museum.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s fun, exciting and in a way I feel a lot of gratitude because you know when you give your fans a little more than just the movies, then it\u2019s really, really special. I hope they enjoy it as much as we enjoy creating it,\u201d Deepika said in the announcement video. She said that the only time she\u2019d visited the museum was in London, with her parents when she was a child. To get the call to have her own statue exhibited made her \u201cVery, very excited.<\/p>\n
The only time I visited Madame Tussauds was in London when I was very little with my parents. That memory has sort of stayed with me, obviously. And then to receive a letter and now to be a part of that, and to actually experience what goes into making these wax figures. I think Madame Tussauds is so iconic in so many ways so it\u2019s really special,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Deepika even posted the very first pictures of her statue being made, with a photograph of the hers for reference. In the picture, we can see samples of eyes that might end up on Deepika\u2019s statue. Deepika is currently in London getting her measurements taken for the process. Asked whom she\u2019d like her statue to be placed next to, she said, \u201cI think near fun people so that we can have our own little party there. But I think just to be part of this legacy of people who have achieved so much in life is exciting enough.\u201d Deepika\u2019s statue will be placed in the A-list category.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
