Video: Here's Naseem Shah's Indian doppelganger

A man resembling Pakistani fast bowler Naseem Shah has gone viral after expressing anger in a video over a controversy related to the YouTube show India Got Latent. However, instead of focusing on the issue, social media users are more obsessed with his uncanny resemblance to the Pakistani heartthrob cricketer.

In the now-viral clip, the Naseem Shah lookalike expresses frustration over how much attention India's Got Latent is receiving. He argues that the focus should be on bigger issues like inflation, pollution, and unemployment instead of debating whether the show should be banned.

He said, "Of course, our country will only become great when shows like India's Got Latent are banned. Even Elon Musk and China think the same way. China disrupted the market with platforms like DeepSea, but in our country, the trending topic is whether India's Got Latent should be banned."

"People are being summoned as if they are criminals. Inflation is rising, pollution is increasing, unemployment is growing, but no one is talking about these issues," he added.

He also slammed the hypocrisy around entertainment, saying, "Controversial songs like Choli Ke Peeche Kya Hai, Sheila Ki Jawani, and Bidi Jalai Le have played at festivals for years, but no one had a problem with them. Where was the moral outrage then?"

"Comedy should be seen as comedy. This is not a physics or philosophy class. If you don't like the show, don't watch it. But people want to watch and criticize at the same time—what double standards!" he added.

Despite his serious take on the issue, the highlight for many social media users remains his resemblance to Naseem Shah. The video has sparked humorous memes.

One user commented, "Ye bilkul Naseem Shah ka bhai lag raha hai" (He looks exactly like Naseem Shah's brother). Another joked, "Hailaaaa! Naseem Shah!"

Some cricket fans, seemingly confused, even thought he was Naseem himself. "Starting m mujhe laga yeh Pakistan ka cricket player Naseem Shah hai" (At first, I thought this was Pakistan's cricket player Naseem Shah)," wrote one user. Another asked, "Yeh banda Naseem Shah hai kya? Pakistani bowler?"

Some even humorously advised the man to stay out of Indian controversies and focus on cricket. "Why is Naseem Shah angry over Indian issues? Bro, focus on the Champions Trophy," one person commented. Another added, "Naseem Shah, bowling par dhyan de!" (Naseem Shah, focus on bowling!).

Meanwhile, others couldn't help but joke about his resemblance, calling him "Naseem Shah ke bichade bhai" (Naseem Shah's long-lost brother).

Despite the man's attempts to address the controversy, it seems the internet is only interested in one thing—how much he looks like Pakistan's young fast-bowling sensation.
