Kajol's husband Ajay Devgn hasn’t had the opportunity to get a wax statue for himself either.

Mumbai: Most renowned celebrities – be it Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Katrina Kaif or Madhuri Dixit Nene, have their wax statues at Madame Tussauds. It was already high time Kajol also had one, and now, the dreams might be coming true.

A source told Pinkvilla, “Apparently, it all happened a few months ago and an announcement is expected to be made this year with the unveiling of her image. It is expected that her entire family, including her husband Ajay Devgn will be there with her, at the unveiling. It's heard that a team from Madame Tussauds has already met Kajol for her measurements and discussed the look and styling that her wax statue will have in London. It’s wonderful that Kajol will be featured because apart from coming from an illustrious Bollywood lineage (her maternal grandmother was Shobhana Samarth, her maternal aunt was late Nutan and Kajol is the daughter of actress Tanuja and late filmmaker Shomu Mukherjee), she has been awarded the Padma Shri and is one of India’s highest paid and most successful actresses. Kajol has an enviable filmography, won many awards and also been actively involved in several philanthropic endeavours (including education), related to women and children. So yes, it’s high time that Kajol is also seen in Madame Tussauds.”

Interestingly, Shah Rukh Khan also has a wax statue in London. The two are already an iconic Bollywood jodi, so it won’t be surprising if Kajol’s wax statue is made right next to Shah Rukh Khan’s.

Ajay Devgn hasn’t had the opportunity to get a wax statue for himself either, but very recently Varun Dhawan, Prabhas and Anil Kapoor got their wax statues made in Hong Kong, Bangkok and Singapore respectively.
