Shahid Kapoor becomes the latest Bollywood actor to get wax statue at Madame Tussauds

SINGAPORE - Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor has unveiled his wax figure at the Madame Tussauds Wax Museum in Singapore. He took to Instagram to share first pictures with his statue, which does look like a spitting image of the star.

“#Twinning,” he captioned a picture on Instagram which shows him posing with the wax statue. Both, the real Shahid and the wax one, are wearing stylish suits and the same shoes. More pictures posted on his Instagram stories show him fixing the figure’s hair or clicking selfies with it.

The actor’s fans could not believe how uncanny the figure looked. “Which one is real,” asked a fan in the comments section of Shahid’s pic. “Who’s the real one you should mention Shasha,” suggested another. “Awesome....took me seconds to differentiate,” commented another fan.
