Popular actress Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif is the latest star to join the Bollywood line-up at Madame Tussauds, London. Katrina, born to a British mother and Kashmiri father, was picked after she went head to head with competitors Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone to win a poll last year via Madame Tussauds official website and in collaboration with Panjab Radio, with more than 225,000 votes were cast. "It's an amazing honour to be asked and to be featured alongside icons of the Indian film industry is humbling," the actress said. After coming face-to-face with her wax model, Kaif said, "This is amazing it does look really like me." Katrina's figure was created by a team of 20 sculptors and artists over a four-month period, using hundreds of precise measurements taken at a sitting in Mumbai and cost 150,000 pounds to create. Over 500 precise body measurements are referenced, real head hairs are inserted one by one, and countless layers of paints and tints are applied to build up skin tones to achieve a kind of astonishing realism that visitors flock to see from around the world. The 31-year-old British-Indian actress has become the seventh Bollywood actor to be honoured with a figure at Madame Tussauds London and joins Amitabh Bachchan (2000), Aishwarya Rai (2004), Shah Rukh Khan (2007), Salman Khan (2008), Hrithik Roshan (2011) and Madhuri Dixit-Nene (2012).
