Amitabh Bachchan and Shahrukh Khan will be immortalised at Kolkata’s first wax museum, which will be similar to London’s Madame Tussauds. Sources say, Big B and SRK will be two amongst 19 other life-size wax statues that will be unveiled on November 10th for the public. The museum has been named after Mother Teresa. Located in Finance Centre, New Town, it is spread over an area of 5,000 square feet. Veteran wax sculptor Susanta Ray, who has a smaller wax museum in Asansol in Burdwan district of West Bengal, has crafted 19 statues. West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee will be inaugurating the ‘Mother’s Wax Museum’ along with Amitabh Bachchan and Shahrukh Khan who will be in the city on November 10th for the opening ceremony of the 20th Kolkata International Film Festival.
