We often come across with doppelgangers of Bollywood celebrities. Be it Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Aishwarya Rai or Anushka Sharma -- many celebrities and their lookalikes have made headlines in the past. The latest star to join the bandwagon is Akshay Kumar.
A photograph of Akshay's doppelganger is doing the rounds on the Internet. The picture was shared by a journalist.
"Met a Kashmiri fan of Sunil Gavaskar, Majid Mir in Kashmir," the journalist captioned the image.

But more than the caption and Mir's admiration for former India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar, netizens found something else interesting about the Kashmiri man, and it was his uncanny resemblance to the "Kesari" actor.

Akshay Kumar, who is currently basking in the success of Mission Mangal, is yet to comment on the Internet's new discovery.
