Bollywood's next-generation Laila aka Sunny Leone has added another feather to her cap as she will be joining the company of popular B-Town actors like Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Salman Khan and Hrithik Roshan at the Madame Tussauds museum in Delhi.

Yes, Sunny's wax statue will be displayed alongside other celebrities in a yet-to-be-announced theme at the museum.

A team of expert artists flew in from London to meet Sunny for a sitting in Mumbai, where they took over 200 specific measurements and images to create an authentic figure.

An elated Sunny took to her Instagram story section to share a couple of pictures of she getting measured.

Her husband Daniel Weber also took to Instagram to share his excitement and wrote, "Today was one of those moments, when every Crazy thing you went through to get to the place you are today , is worth it all!!! I am so proud and everyone who works with us to make this happen!!! Thank You Madame Tussauds for asking Sunny Leone to be a part of your family now and FOREVER !!! Xoxoxo. So proud !!!

"I am thrilled and grateful to Madame Tussauds for creating my figure. Having my own wax figure is completely overwhelming. This is the first time I have undergone a sitting and I must thank the entire team for making it a unique and memorable experience. I am equally excited to see 'me' at the attraction and can't wait for the fans reaction it will be finally displayed later this year," said Sunny.

Pointing out that the actress has a "massive fan base", Anshul Jain, general manager and director at Merlin Entertainments India Pvt Ltd, said: "Announcing her figure at the attraction is equally enthralling for us, and we are certain that this will give her fans millions of memories to carry home with lots of selfies."
