We’ve heard of countless celebrity lookalikes. But these guys just take the cake. Remember the guy who looks alike Indian test captain Virat Kohli. He has been found once again on the third day of the 3rd test match between India and New zealand at Indore.
As they flashed the man on the big screen a big roar erupted around the stadium. It was none other than Indian captain Virat Kohli. Or was it him?
Sanjay Manjrekar, who was at the commentary box perhaps also mistook the lookalike to be Kohli and started off by saying,” It’s really great to see him go to the stand immediately after the double hundred to meet the fans. You’ve got to appreciate this. You know what. This is what makes him special.”
His co-commentator Ravi Shastri chose to hold back his words for a while and when he found it wasn’t the Indian skipper, he broke out in laughter saying,”Look at the selfies. They all think that it is Virat Kohli.”
This guy resembles a lot like Kohli. There is no doubt about it. The face, beard everything is remarkably very close to Kohli. He is wearing the cap the Kohli wears usually. The sunglasses are the same which Kohli wears. People were so much obsessed by this lookalike that they were clicking selfies with him.
Even when this guy was shown on the big screen, Kohli saw him as well. The reaction on the face of Indian skipper were of full amusement. He was literally stunned to see his own look alike. Again it was the cunning resemblance which even made Kohli astonished. But then this guy was stopped from entering the stadium.
