Madame Tussauds wax museum in New Delhi has revealed its biggest attraction, yet, a wax statue of Badshah Shah Rukh Khan. Dressed in a blue achkan, standing in his famous arms-spread-wide pose, the figure garnered unmatchable attention on the first day itself. Official handle of the musuem tweeted, “The king has graced #TussaudsDelhi. Show your love #NaamToSunaHiHoga.” This is Shah's second wax statue after the one on display at Madame Tussauds London, which was unveiled in 2007.

The museum, which is located in Connaught Place in Delhi, also houses the wax figures of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, and others. On the work front, Shah Rukh is currently shooting for Anand L Rai's 'Zero' with Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif. Also, he has decided to remake Kamal Haasan's 'Hey Ram', and has acquired rights from co-producer Bharat Shah. Originally made in Tamil, the movie was dubbed in Hindi and went on to become one of Haasan's best films. Shah Rukh was also a part of the original. The movie was a historical political drama with a semi-fictional plot which was centered on India's partition and assassination of Mahatma Gandhi.
