Yoga guru Baba Ramdev's wax statue unveiled by 'Madame Tussauds New York' in Delhi

Madame Tussauds New York unveiled the wax statue of Yoga guru Ramdev on Tuesday in Delhi. The wax statue will be placed at the Wax Museum in Times Square, Manhattan.The wax statue of Baba Ramdev has been crafted in the Vrikshasana pose, also known as the Tree Pose in yoga. This pose involves standing on one leg with the other leg bent, resting the sole of the foot against the thigh. The hands are clasped and stretched overhead. The name "Vrikshasana" is derived from the Sanskrit word "Vriksha," which means a tree, reflecting the pose's resemblance to the stability and grace of a tree.According to reports, in 2018, Ramdev gave his photographs and measurements to the Madame Tussauds Wax Museum in London to a 20-member team to prepare his wax statue. He also tweeted a series of photographs of himself at the museum, including a yoga pose of vrikshasan (standing on one leg), which is the current statue's pose as well. Other Indians who have their wax figures at the New York Museum are Mahatma Gandhi, Priyanka Chopra, Ranveer Singh, Varun Dhawan, Kareena Kapoor, Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif.
