Shahid Kapoor is getting a wax statue at Madame Tussauds and the whole family is raving about the news. The actor himself is quite elated and is getting all surreal vibes ever since he has given the measurements for the statue.

A leading daily talked to the actor to know more about the news. Shahid revealed that while everything else was pre-decided, it was his wife, Mira, who finally took a call on the statue's pose. He said, "When they were taking my measurements, I was on FaceTime with her (Mira). They had 50 shades of eyeballs and hair. They laid them out to check which one was closest to mine. Mira was curious to know, so I was showing her how they put 150 dots on my face, made me stand still and took pictures with 2D as well as 3D cameras. She was quite fascinated".

He added, "They sent options for the pose that I could go for. Mira took the final call on that".

However, Shahid isn't sure where would his statue be put in the museum. In fact, he is of the opinion that wherever he is put, he should just be with somebody who's from her generation. The actor said, "I’d like to be featured with people who are from my generation because I think that would be appropriate. Varun is the closest, so maybe they should put us together somewhere. I think our statues should be high-fiving each other (laughs)".

On the work front, Shahid is gearing up for the release of his upcoming, titled Batti Gul Meter Chalu. The film features Yami Gautam and Shraddha Kapoor and is slated for release on September 21.
