Man has lifelike wax sculpture made of his dead wife for housewarming
Srinivasa Gupta, 57, had a businessman in India make the sculpture to ensure that his wife’s memory would be kept alive forever. Gupta unveiled the sculpture of his deceased wife MAdhavi at his new bungalow in Koppal, a district in the Indian state of Karnataka.
“The home was built specifically in Madhavi’s honor. Before her death in a car crash three years ago, she had reportedly always dreamed of having a bungalow.”
About a year after Madhavi’s death, Gupta decided to have the bungalow built in her memory. Gupta reportedly talked with 25 architects before deciding to hire Mahesh Rangannadavaru.
Gupta stated that he does not regret the gesture, in fact, it is exactly what he wanted and his wife looks so real!
