But my looks were often brought to my attention by my family & friends - ‘You look like Shahrukh Khan!’ My parents were especially proud of the fact that they gave birth to a kid who had an uncanny resemblance to India’s superstar. I couldn’t help the attention I got & frankly when puberty hit, I started looking exactly like SRK! And that’s when the madness began; after my friends & I watched Raees, everyone started mobbing me for selfies thinking the real SRK had made an appearance for the film’s premiere!"</p>.<p>"Then there was another incident when I went to watch KKR take on Gujarat Lions in the stadium; everyone took out their cameras & waved at me. People clapped & spoke SRK’s famous movie lines at me. I saw how much love people have for SRK, & for the 1st time, I felt like a Badshah; it was special! But very quickly, I also realized what SRK probably goes through daily; I got swamped & someone held onto me so tight that my t-shirt tore! It got so bad that I had to call the police to be safely taken out of the stadium. And after rescuing me, the cops asked, ‘SRK sir, ek (one) selfie?’</p>.<p>While Qadri is not the Bollywood superstar's only lookalike to have gathered this much attention, it is his almost twin-like appearance that makes it nearly impossible for others to differentiate between the two.</p>
