MUMBAI: Hrithik Roshan will become the fifth Bollywood celebrity to have his wax figure standing at Madame Tussauds when he unveils it on Friday.

"It‘s just going to be symbolic of my journey. It‘s going to be something that will motivate me when I‘m tired. I‘ll think of this statue and it will make me keep going and giving my best. It makes me feel great and will help me fight my exhaustion," commented Hrithik.

"I never thought in my wildest of dreams that there will be a time in my life when I‘ll be unveiling my own statue at the Madame Tussauds. I remember once I‘ve stood there in the line for three hours when I was a 12-year-old to see the museum," he added.

Madame Tussauds already sports wax statuettes of Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya Bachchan, Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan.

Hrithik made his debut in 2000 with a leading role in Kaho Naa...Pyaar Hai and became an overnight sensation. Later he gave hits like Dhoom 2, Koi... Mil Gaya and Krrish.
