Karnataka businessman installs life-size statue of late wife for housewarming; see pics

In a heartfelt incident, a Karnataka-based businessman observed the housewarming ceremony of his late wife’s “dream bungalow” by installing her silicon wax statue to imitate her presence. Srinivas Gupta, whose wife passed away in a tragic car accident in 2017, missed his better half in the ceremony attended by the family members to celebrate the couple’s “once imagined” newly constructed home. In a tweet that was shared by a news agency, the businessman can be seen seated next to the near life-like statue of his beloved wife draped in pink saree and clad in accessories, smiling.  

According to the agency report, Gupta’s new house was located in Koppal, Karnataka, in which he designed his late wife’s sculpture with the help of an architect named Ranghannanavar. In 2017, she was on her way to Tirupati along with her two daughters, where she met the tragic fate and lost her life to a deadly car crash. While the daughters sustained minor injuries and survived, the mother, unfortunately, succumbed. In her loving memory, Srinivas designed a wax statue inside the house that he constructed for her 2 years ago. The home, according to the report, was the woman’s long-standing dream when she was alive.
