NaMo Joins The List Of Indian Politicians Being Immortalised At Madame Tussauds..!!

A dreamlike state, where the imitation is as good as reality is something that leaves everyone in awe. A moment of pride,  a strange speechlessness that cannot exactly be defined as something out of joy, but surely a strange elation is what everyone feels as they walk past the wax statues of Madam Tussauds. And the emotions feel no constraint when it is an Indian’s statue that they are admiring.

Well, a few years ago, there were very few who made us proud by entering this famed position.  But now, we have many. And joining the brigade is the selfie man of our country who is often misunderstood as the travel and tourism minister. Yes, it is Narendra Modi aka NaMo.  Here is a list of other prominent personalities from the country who have been honored with wax imitations at the museum.

Mahatma Gandhi :

Many wouldn’t agree on us calling him a politician, but his sheer political presence historically, makes him our first choice in this list.

Indira Gandhi :

Sachin Tendulkar :

Wondering why he is mentioned in Politicians here? We understand, with his poor attendance at the Rajya Sabha, it is but natural for us to forget that he is an MP too.

Amitabh Bachchan :

Followed by this was the placement of another statue was installed in New York in 2009, Hong Kong in 2011, Bangkok in 2011 and Washington, DC in 2012. Wow, that’s a huge list, isn’t it?
So, why is he here? Well, the lesser known fact about our Big B is that he contested and won the Allahabad’s seat of 8th Lok Sabha against H. N. Bahuguna, former Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh with the highest victory margins in general election history.

Narendra Modi :

His statues will be placed in London, Singapore, Hong Kong and Bangkok museum of Tussauds. And guess what? With his entry to the Tussauds, the Tussauds is also coming to India. Yes, that’s right. As part of the India-UK Year of Culture in 2017 agreement, a Madam Tussauds museum branch will now open up in New Delhi as well.
