Madame Tussauds Singapore has introduced its newest addition, an incredibly realistic wax figure of cricket superstar Virat Kohli, coinciding with the ICC Men's World Cup 2023. Kohli is widely recognized as one of the preeminent contemporary batsmen in international cricket.
Celebrated for his exceptional batting prowess, adept leadership, and dynamic on-field persona, Kohli made his debut for the Indian cricket team in 2008 and has since been a pivotal figure in bolstering India's position as one of the world's leading cricketing nations.
Steven Chung, general manager at Madame Tussauds Singapore, said, “We are proud to add Virat Kohli's figure to our line-up of sporting icons. His unwavering commitment to excellence, coupled with his charismatic personality has earned him a special place in the hearts of millions. Kohli fans around the world can now come to Madame Tussauds Singapore to connect with their hero on a whole new level and feel his aura!”
Kohli said, “I sincerely appreciate the efforts and incredible work undergone in making my figure. Thanks to Madame Tussauds for choosing me for this lifetime experience. I am grateful to my fans for their love and support.”
Sporting the official Indian cricket kit, which was generously donated by Virat Kohli, the wax figure can be seen in the Sports Zone. Here, he will be in the company of iconic athletes like Ronaldo, Yao Ming, and fellow cricketer Sachin Tendulkar.
“We are thrilled to be part of a modern-day great having his launch in Singapore. Virat Kohli is a symbol of strength, character and skill all rolled into one,” said Singapore Cricket Association's president Mahmood Gaznavi.
