Madame Tussauds is considering Katrina Kaif, a British national whose family is settled in London, to join Bollywood divas Aishwarya Rai, Kareena Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit, in their famous wax museum. A friend of the actress told Mirror that she received interest to install a wax statue of her at their London museum. Said the friend, “Katrina learned about it last Sunday, around 2.30 in the afternoon, and is over the moon. She promptly responded to the invite and talks are currently underway with the Tussauds team”.
A final decision will be made next week. If all goes well, within a year, a statue of Katrina’s will be unveiled.” Amitabh Bachchan was the first living Asian and also the first star from the Hindi film industry to enter the house of wax in 2000.
Interestingly, his daughter-in-law, Aishwarya Rai, was the first Bollywood actress to make it to the elite list four years later and their statues stood shoulder to shoulder. Aishwarya was followed by Kareena Kapoor whose statue was unveiled in 2011, followed by the Dhak Dhak girl, Madhuri Dixit a year later. The museum also houses wax replicas of Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Hrithik Roshan. The actors are usually modeled on a popular character they have played.
