Getting wax statues at Madame Tussauds museums have often been considered as a benchmark of being ‘stars’. Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Hrithik Roshan, Madhuri Dixit, Kareena Kapoor Khan were among the first to get a wax statue at the popular museum, with Shreya Ghoshal and Anil Kapoor being the latest to get one.
Bollywood hunk Ranveer Singh who has made a name for himself in industry become perhaps the first star from the younger generation to get his own wax statue, though not at the Madame Tussauds, but at the Grevin wax mususem in Paris on the occasion of his birthday on Thursday.
Ranveer’s wax statue is dressed in a white shirt and black tuxedo. The actor’s pose will remind you of his photos from the promotions as he often strikes the same for the photos in Mumbai.

With his last film ‘Befikre’ being shot mostly in Paris, the actor’s popularity in the region could be one of the reasons behind the move.
Ranveer has become only the third Bollywood star after Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan to make his presence felt at the museum.

Interestingly, Ranveer’s measurements for the statue were taken when he was shooting for Befikre back in 2016. Ranveer’s photos while giving the measurements had gone viral on the web. He had back then said, “It’s a truly special birthday present and one that will always bring back beautiful memories of Paris. I love all things French, and am grateful to the museum that they have given me a permanent place in wax in their home and their hearts.”
