The Jaipur Wax Museum, which has wax sculptures of around 25 personalities, was opened on Saturday at the 18th century built Nahargarh Fort, which overlooks the city.

Bollywood actor Govinda, who was accompanied with his wife Sunita Ahuja inaugurated the museum and unveiled the statue of megastar Amitabh Bachchan.

"I would like to congratulate the organisers for the museum and I hope there will more activities like this in Jaipur," the actor told media here.
