Madame Tussaud?s hasn?t asked him yet
By: 

 

Unaware: Salman Khan
Salman Khan and controversies go hand-in-hand. Recently, there was news that Madame Tussaud’s had approached him for a wax statue at the famed London wax museum. Later, television channels splashed the news that he had declined the offer as he did not want to be in the same room as Aishwarya Rai (even in his wax likeness!).

However, Salman’s father Salim Khan rubbishes such talk. What’s more, he says Salman hasn’t officially received any such notification from Madame Tussaud’s!

‘Foolish to refuse’

“I am not aware of the offer from Madame Tussaud’s. We have not received any official intimation or letter from them, so how can he have refused it? Salman is currently in Austria shooting for Subhash Ghai’s next. Due to the time difference, I haven’t had the chance to talk to him. Whatever I know is based on media reports,” says Salim Khan.

He adds that it would be a proud day for the family if Salman is indeed approached to pose for Madame Tussaud’s. “Television news channels said he has refused the offer, but he did not say anything to them. It’s possible that presently he doesn’t have time to sit for the statue measurements, but it’s a great honour and speaks for his popularity abroad. Salman would be foolish to refuse if the offer does come along,” says Salim.
