Will be installed in the museum for three months
Shah Rukh Khan's wax figure is making a special appearance at the Madame Tussauds museum in Hong Kong. The 44-year-old actor's statue will be on display alongside Hollywood stars Jackie Chan, Harrison Ford and Johnny Depp on a special 3 month loan from London. "Madame Tussauds Hong Kong has been receiving many more tourists from India in the last two years. While these guests enjoy meeting our unique collection of 100 international celebrities and world leaders, we are delighted to have Khan join our attraction," Bret Pidgeon, general manager of Madam Tussauds Hong Kong and Shanghai said in a statement. The wax figure, which was installed in London in April 2007, will be on display at the World Premiere section in Hong Kong's Madame Tussauds until July 21.
However, the museum is not new to Bollywood. Last year, it had displayed the wax figure of megastar Amitabh Bachchan. "Following the success of displaying Amitabh Bachchan's wax figure at the attraction last year, we anticipate that Khan will be as popular with the Indian community in Hong Kong and guests visiting from abroad," Pidgeon added.
