Yesteryear actress Madhubala is the latest celebrity to join the Bollywood brigade at Madame Tussauds, which is scheduled to open later this year. The actress’ wax figure will be styled based on her iconic character Anarkali from the classic film Mughal-E- Azam.
Madhubala, one of the leading actresses from Hindi cinema’s golden era, appeared in classics like Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi, Mr & Mrs 55, Kala Paani, and Howrah Bridge, during her brief lifetime, becoming one of the highly regarded personalities in the industry. “We are glad to have the figure of Madhubala at Madame Tussauds Delhi. She continues to rule the hearts of billions of fans in the nation.”
“We are sure that her magnetic beauty will attract her fans to click a selfie and relive a special moment with her and be transported back to the golden era of cinema,” Anshul Jain, said.
Madhubala’s beauty was recognised globally when she was featured in one of the popular American Magazine’s – in 1952. To honour her, a commemorative postage stamp featuring Madhubala was issued in 2008.
