Madam Tussad's in Baywatch? This is better seen than explained. Oh, and you can theoretically order one of yours here too.


Baywatch has recently added a new attraction -- India's first wax museum of famous people.

A suggestion book is placed prominently at the museum so you can request who you would like to see at the museum when you come next. This is forwarded to an advisory board.

There is only one sculptor who works on these request. His name is Sunil Kandallore and he works in Kayamkulam, located in Alleppey district in Kerala. Thirty-three-year old Sunil's wax statues cost Rs 200,000 to Rs 250,000 and are made completely from wax.

Pics and the whole story here.
