Mahesh Babu’s wax statue unveiled, see photos

Mahesh Babu struck a pose with his wax statue, which was unveiled today.

During the event, it was revealed that the team of Madam Tussauds took around 200 measurements of Mahesh Babu to get the wax statue right. In fact, it took them six months to complete the statue.

“It was an incredible experience. I can never forget that. I have to thank the sculpture team. Their attention to detail was meticulous. It was a little too long. Some of the things were funny. They got a box of eyes and asked me to place one of them next to my head. Attention to detail was amazing. Three months ago, they sent an image to my wife on her phone. The sculpture was still in progress but I freaked out. My friends could not believe it. They thought it was a photo shoot,” Mahesh said at the event.

Mahesh Babu said “It is freaking me out for real. It cannot get more real than this.”

As soon as the figure was unveiled, Mahesh Babu’s family including wife Namrata Shirodkar and his kids Sitaara and Gautham joined the star on the stage.

Namrata Shirodkar quipped, “I think I have two husbands now. It is incredible. So real.”

After the launch, Mahesh took to Twitter and thanked Madame Tussauds’ team. He wrote, “Thanks a lot to @MTsSingapore team for unveiling the figure in my own city & my country amidst my family, friends & fans. Extremely happy with the response & love, each one has showered on me. I’m very happy, overwhelmed and grateful😊😊”
