The
eagerly awaited wax figure of Indian cinema's beloved icon, Allu Arjun, was
unveiled to the world in a star-studded event at Madame Tussauds Dubai on Bluewaters!
The big reveal happened on March 28th, attracting an amazing crowd of
influencers and media, which created a fantastic exposure for the charismatic
actor.
The
six-time Filmfare Award winner and India’s Prestigious National Award Winner,
known affectionately as the Icon Star, 'King of Dance,' now stands immortalized
in wax, capturing his dynamic presence and unparalleled talent. Allu Arjun's
figure finds its place in a dedicated area themed around his famous song
"Butta Bomma”, featuring an interactive dance experience where guests can
learn his iconic moves!
Adorned
in an iconic red jacket reminiscent of his electrifying performance in the
boardroom dance scene from the blockbuster movie "Ala
Vaikunthapurramuloo," the figure embodies the essence of Allu Arjun's
magnetic persona. Allu Arjun is the first actor from South India to have his
statue at Madame Tussauds in Dubai.
Reflecting
on this extraordinary honour, Allu Arjun shared, "I visited Madame
Tussauds in Los Angeles and was blown away by the experience! I can't believe
that now I'll have a wax figure, I never would have believed it! Seeing this
figure, I feel immensely grateful and humbled. It's incredibly realistic,
almost like looking in a mirror!"
Sanaz
Kollsrud, General Manager of Madame Tussauds Dubai said, ”Allu Arjun is without
a doubt the biggest actor from the south of India. We are thrilled to unveil
his wax figure, especially for our South Indian visitors. His figure is a
testament to his immense popularity and the adoration he receives from fans
worldwide. We are confident that his presence will further elevate the
experience for our guests."
The
creation of Allu Arjun's wax figure involved meticulous attention to detail,
with over 200 measurements taken during a 'sitting' earlier this year. This
painstaking process ensured that every aspect of the figure, from his
expression to his signature dance moves, is authentically captured.
During
the reveal, Allu Arjun's family accompanied him, adding a unique taste to the
event and providing valuable support. Fans can now visit Madame Tussauds Dubai
on Bluewaters to witness the mesmerizing allure of Allu Arjun's wax figure and
immerse themselves in the captivating world of Indian cinema. Stay updated with
