Live Art Museum – VGP Snow Kingdom, Chennai
The Live Art Museum contains life-like 3D replicas/models of a few famous personalities in Silicone (instead of wax, which is generally used to make replicas). You can not only see the replicas of famous people, but you can also take a selfie with all of them 🙂
Some of the replicas/models we found when we visited include Amitabh Bachchan, Michael Jackson, Arnold Schwazzanegar, MS Dhoni, Charlie Chaplin, Jackie Chan, Mona Lisa, Sai Baba, Mother Teresa, etc.
This museum has been put up by Mr. AP Sreethar who also put up the neighboring Click Art Museum and Vintage Camera Gallery. The organizers say that this is the world’s first exhibition of silicone replica models, and they claim that silicone is a better material than wax to make models looks more lifelike.
We went to the VGP Snow Kingdom, located one floor below, before visiting the Live Art Museum. Since we bought the Snow Kingdom tickets, we were able to buy tickets for Live Art Museum at Rs. 100/- each (combo). Otherwise, I think each ticket costs Rs. 150/-. Ticket pricing keeps changing, please refer to their website for the firm pricing when you visit.
So who wants to visit the Madame Tussauds of Chennai?? 😉

Timing is same as the VGP Snow Kingdom, 10 A.M. to 8 P.M. Here is the exact Google Maps location.
Thanks for the info. Hope this becomes as famous as Madame Tussauds Wax Museum.
Are they charging you Rajesh? You are giving these people free publicity. They should be paying you, if not at least give you free tickets.
If I mail them prior to my visit, most venues like this would be glad to give me free tickets. But the issue is, most of the time we decide to go to a place in the last minute, so there is not much time. Secondly, a favour like free tickets might require me to write positive things about my experience, which I don’t want.
