While Mahesh and Prabhas’ fans are fighting over who should be called the first ever South Indian to get a wax statue at Madame Tussauds, Malayalam superstars Mammootty and Mohanlal have a wax statue each in their respective names.
Of course, their wax statues were sculpted by a sculptor by name Harikumar who is a Malayali. The sculptor spent Rs. 1.25 lakh for each of the statues. In a simple ceremony held at a press club, the artist unveiled the statues and surprised everyone for his artistic excellence.
To be frank, his statues are more lively and it’s hard not to believe that they are not superstars but only wax statues. When Katrina Kaif’s statue was unveiled at Madame Tussauds recently, many felt that the statue didn’t match up to the original beauty of the Bollywood actress. Same was the case with many wax statues at Tussauds. But, Harikumar’s art was distinctive. Kudos!
