KFC’s iconic burger Zinger was unveiled at Madame Tussauds’ New Delhi museum recently. Popular in over 120 countries, the Zinger is the original celebrity burger, and Colonel Sanders, KFC’s founder, was the original celebrity chef.
But how did it find its way to Madame Tussauds? Moksh Chopra, chief marketing officer, KFC India, said, “While many have wondered if the Zinger is a piece of art or a celebrity, all debates are now put to rest with the Zinger asserting its celebrity status at Madame Tussauds.”
“Surely this is not any regular burger. It is the only burger that has travelled to space and has even inspired tattoo artworks for some. In 2018 alone, we sold more than 10 million Zingers in India - that is like a Zinger each for every person in New Zealand and Singapore.”
Anshul Jain, general manager and director, Merlin Entertainments India Pvt Ltd, added, “Madame Tussauds Delhi is one of the most favoured and loved family entertainment destination in Delhi NCR. Our endeavour has always been to give a complete and memorable experience to all our visitors. We welcome the Zinger Burger to Madame Tussauds Delhi.”
Just as the actual Zinger burger is hand made with care at the KFC restaurant, the Zinger at Madame Tussauds Delhi was crafted with similar precision.
Madame Tussauds is globally known for their lifelike figures of famous personalities; each figure being created using precise measurements and photographs by skilled artists and sculptors to capture exact details.
