Romance and Action Unite at Madame Tussauds

Split into two captivating halves, this immersive set offers a unique blend of romance and action, inspired by the iconic films of Varun Dhawan and Shah Rukh Khan.

Here, visitors have the chance to become the romantic interest in a quintessential Bollywood love story.

On the flip side, the zone transforms into an adrenaline-pumping action film set, drawing inspiration from Shah Rukh Khan's blockbuster "Chennai Express". This area features a motorbike interactive, allowing guests to capture their action-star moment. While our launch aligns with the celebratory hues of the Holi festival, we're excited to place a greater emphasis on the immersive, cinematic journey that awaits our visitors, offering a deeper dive into the magic and allure of Bollywood storytelling.
