 [h=3]Madame Tussauds coming to Delhi, call goes out for Kejriwax[/h] Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal may be inimitable, but now he may get a double — in wax. Sources told The Indian Express that the India partner of London’s Madame Tussauds, which is set to open in Delhi next year, wrote to Kejriwal on January 11, requesting him to accept its invitation “to be an esteemed waxwork figure at the new attraction in Delhi”. If Kejriwal accepts the invitation from Wizcraft Entertainment International (WEI), he is likely to be the first Indian chief minister to be replicated in wax by the iconic museum of life-size replicas.

Why do we want officials who don’t take phone calls from the district in-charge minister?,” Naik is purportedly heard saying in the footage, which was reportedly recorded in Hadagalli constituency of Ballari district.

Shellanoo, backed by Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich and popstars will.i.am and Nicki Minaj, among others, is being targeted by campaigners but says criticism of its app is undeserved.
