Kareena won't be immortalised in wax at Tussauds

For months on end, we were told that a wax statue of Kareena Kapoor was being prepared for the famous Madame Tussauds in London. She was going to be immortalised in her Chameli avatar, and her statue would be unveiled on August 15, fortuitously just a day before beau Saif Ali Khan's 41st birthday. As it turns out, not everything is what it seems.

According to sources, the Chameli look has not been finalised and her wax statue won't be displayed in the famous museum, but a new branch somewhere in Blackpool, a small town in North West England.

"Initially, the Kareena camp leaked reports that her wax statue was to be unveiled on August 15. Now that the date is upon us, they are saying the event has been postponed to October and that the statue might be unveiled in Blackpool," said a source, adding that no Chameli look was ever finalised.

So far, six Indians have found place at Madame Tussauds, a museum of wax statues. These include Sachin Tendulkar, Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, and early this year, Hrithik Roshan.

A person close to Kapoor requesting anonymity claimed that while the statue will be unveiled in Blackpool, it will later be transported to the famous museum in London. "Bebo's statue will be unveiled at a new Madame Tussauds in Blackpool and later transported to London. The idea is to start off a new Madame Tussauds in Blackpool with Bebo's statue," he said.

On Kapoor's look for the statue, he agreed that none has been finalised. "Designer Manish Malhotra was given the job of deciding Bebo's look at Madame Tussauds and he gave three options -- her characters in Karan Johar's Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham, Imtiaz Ali's Jab We Met and Sudhir Mishra's Chameli. But the final look is yet to be decided."

Another friend of Kapoor's appeared angry at the insinuations that she has been generating the stories. "Bebo is not a nobody who needs to plant stories, trying to prove how she is in demand," she said.


Bdubs...i suggest you READ the article and not jump to conclusions!😉

LOL that's not true. The Tussauds people confirmed it.

PS i read the article on kareena forum. lol She will have a tour around London and than end up next to srk and others. That's what the Tussauds ppl said. Are we gonna believe them or the midday ppl who make things up.

I think it's unfair to call be names without confirming the news with Tussauds ppl.

Bad bad month for Kareena's PR. First her Heroine 8 crore claims and now this Tussauds thingy, both of them backfired.

We'll see that whether the statue will be unveiled in London or Blackpool. With that it will be clear who was right, midday or her PR.

But at least the 15th August date was a lie! Tomorrow is 15th August and there is no way it is being unveiled tomorrow.

TOI started this whole BS about it not beign istalled in London. Subhash K Jha, who nowadays has a problem with her, is writing htis just to vent out his bitterness.

BUT, in truth, yes she IS BEING INSTALLED IN LONDON, but the statue is being UNVEILED IN BLACKPOOL, which was stated by in a HIndustan Times articles almost 2 months back, with quotes from Kareena. That was by her PR and they were telling the truth all along.

Seriously why does it matter the date she is being unveiled. So now if someone gets the date wrong they are lying. She will...that's all that matters. Maybe it was pushed back for something that came up. Maybe they didn't like the look...and they had to change it. And she will be unveiled in Blackpool I think for touring purposes. And than she is gonna make it to Londona where srk and others are.
