The Madamme Tussauds Museum in London has given place to the wax statutes of many Bollywood actors like veteran Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Salaman Khan and Aishwarya Rai. Now, it's the turn of another popular Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan to make a place among other actors of the industry.

There was a rumor in 2009 about the actor's wax statue being placed at the prestigious Madamme Tussauds Museum. But this time, it is a confirmed report that the Kites star is making it to the museum. By early 2011, the wax replica of Hrithik Roshan is likely to be installed in the museum. His statute will make place in the Bollywood division near its western counterparts like Shrek.

Hrithik is now busy shooting in Spain for his next film Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara by Zoya Akhtar. The constantly rising popularity of Hrithik in London has made it possible to place him near other fellow Indian actors. His recent release Kites, which had an international release, had probably worked on this popularity.

The actor has not yet confirmed the news. However, Andre Timmins, director of Wizcraft confirmed the news saying, "It is true that Hrithik is soon joining the wax league at the Madame Tussauds. This has happened to him very early in his career as he has just made a decade in the industry. For Roshan family, it is a real proud moment".
