What is common between Kapil Dev, Sachin Tendulkar, David Beckham, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi? Sports legends? Of course. But, love for sports isn't the only thing they share. These legends also share space at the Madame Tussauds in Delhi and are now busy making some room for their newest member who will soon join them.

Team India's Captain Virat Kohli is all set to become the 23rd member of this iconic wax family, the preparations of which have already started. Kohli recently met the Madame Tussauds team for the sitting process.

“It's a great honour to be chosen as one of the figures at Madame Tussauds. All thanks to the Madame Tussauds team who were extremely patient during the sitting sessions and for giving me a lifetime memory,” Virat said. 

The world is primarily divided between two groups – Messi fans and Ronaldo fans. And even if the iconic and legendary players might have nothing (problematic) going on between them, their fans leave no stone unturned to make the rivalry look obvious. But, at least in Delhi, we love both Messi and Ronaldo unconditionally and equally, which is why Madame Tussauds brought the two under one roof. And now that Virat Kohli is moving in with the two (his wax statue we mean), it's going to be difficult for their fans to focus on any one of them.

In fact, Anshul Jain, General Manager and Director of Merlin Entertainments India Pvt. Ltd. said, “We are thrilled to announce the Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli's figure as the 23rd attraction. He holds the heart and respect of every Indian and a perfect choice to have him as our next figure.”

Kohli has won a billion hearts with his impeccable performance on the field and even broke a few million by getting married to Anushka Sharma. Now, we just hope that Anushka soon joins him at Madame Tussauds too.
