Sources say the stars will pose for paintings in their film's get-up

While the Khans have their statues sculpted at Madame Tussauds, it looks like Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha will have themselves etched too.

Reportedly, Akki and Sona will have their life-size paintings done for their forthcoming film Rowdy Rathore. Their paintings will be exhibited in Mumbai and Delhi as part of the film promotion.

A source reveals, "Akshay and Sonakshi have a very interesting look in the film. The producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali came up with the idea of doing an exhibition of their life-size paintings.

There will be 12 to 14 paintings done and sold in the exhibition.

The actors will be in the Rowdy Rathore get-ups. They will be together in the portraits. As it will take a whole day to paint them, we have asked them to spare a day for it."

The action film directed by Prabhu Deva is slated for release on June 15 next year.
