The attraction will house wax figures of national and international celebrities -- Madhubala, Amitabh Bachchan, Lionel Messi, Michael Jackson, Kapil Dev among others, 50 of which will be displayed at the opening.
"Madame Tussauds will serve its Indian guests with a unique and fun filled experience, especially strategized and developed for them.

The attraction will have a genre for every age group offering visitors a fusion of rich Indian culture with an international appeal.
As a precursor to the opening, wax figures of many celebrities were unveiled, the latest being India's sprint legend Milkha Singh.
The figure, to be displayed in the sports zone, has been created by highly skilled artistes from Madame Tussauds from more than 300 measurements and photographs during the sitting sessions with 'the Flying Sikh'.
It is sculpted in a spectacular sprint pose chosen from his victorious win at the Common Wealth Games in 1958.
