Ram Charan Was Honored With The Madame Tussauds Of The Future Award

Best known for his roles in critically acclaimed films such as RRR (2022) and the upcoming Game Changer, Ram Charan was honored with the "Madame Tussauds of the Future Award" at the star-studded 2024 International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards at Etihad Arena, Abu Dhabi. This award not only highlights his success in South Indian cinema but also celebrates his growing global fanbase.

“It’s an honor to be part of Madame Tussauds alongside legends who have contributed immensely to cinema. As a child, I visited Madame Tussauds to see these icons and take pictures with them. I never imagined that one day, I’d be included at such an early stage in my career. I thank Madame Tussauds for recognizing my work and motivating me to keep striving,” said Ram Charan.

In an exciting revelation, his wax figure will also feature his beloved pet, Rhyme, making him the only celebrity aside from Queen Elizabeth II to have a pet included in their Madame Tussauds figure. "I’m truly touched that Rhyme is being included in my figure. It means a lot, as it symbolizes the balance between my personal life and career. Rhyme is a huge part of my life, and this honor makes it even more special."

IIFA and Madame Tussauds Singapore have collaborated since 2017, when the IIFA Awards Experience was launched at the Singapore attraction, offering fans a unique opportunity to connect with their favorite Indian cinema stars. Ram Charan’s addition to the exhibit further strengthens this ongoing collaboration, joining the ranks of Bollywood icons like Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, Karan Johar, and Amitabh Bachchan.
