Aishwarya Bachchan's former boyfriend will soon be a waxwork at Madame Tussaud's, London, just metres away from her Abhishek Bachchan, take a deep breath as you read this. When Bollywood's bad boy, Salman Khan unveils his waxwork at the Madame Tussaud's museum at Marylebone Street in London on January 15, he will be just a few metres away from former love, Aishwarya Rai.
According to Madame Tussaud's, London, marketing coordinator Kieran Lancini, Salman's figure will be placed in the "New Bollywood area along with the other three Bollywood superstars (Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai and Shah Rukh Khan) already immortalised in wax".
Salman Khan though will not be part of the interactive section of the museum like Brad Pitt. Pitt's wax figure has a 'squeezable bum' where tourists can actually fondle his butt. There are no such plans for Salman, though, Lancini asserted, he will be part of the top English tourist spot for posterior-ity.

Where would Salman's waxwork be placed?
In our extremely popular Bollywood area, along other superstars Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai and Shah Rukh Khan.
When was the work on the waxwork started?
Since figures can normally take up to 3-4 months to complete, four sculptors and artists met with Salman for a sitting in Mumbai in October.
What would Salman's figure wear?
He will be dressed to best captivate his personality.
The butt of Brad Pitt's statue can be squeezed. Any such plans for Salman waxwork?
Brad's statue's butt is very popular. But Salman's figure will not have a squeezable butt.
