Pakistani man goes viral for his uncanny resemblance to Elon Musk

A young man in Pakistan has caught the internet’s attention for his uncanny resemblance to billionaire Elon Musk. A video of him dining with friends has gone viral, with one of them jokingly referring to him as Musk while speaking in Pashto.

The viral clip shows the young man being filmed by his friends while eating, with one of them joking, "This is Elon Musk enjoying rice with us."

Many social media users were stunned by how closely the young man resembled a younger version of Musk, with nearly identical facial features.

This isn’t the first time a lookalike of Musk has made waves in Pakistan. Earlier, a photo of a man in his 40s, wearing a kurta shalwar and roaming in a vegetable market, gained widespread attention for his striking resemblance to the billionaire.

However, the authenticity of the viral picture could not be confirmed.

Upon discovering yet another Musk doppelgänger, Pakistani netizens couldn’t help but joke about the country’s collection of celebrity lookalikes. Many recalled a previous viral moment when an pudding seller in Pakistan was compared to former US President Donald Trump.

"We have all kinds of variety available locally, From Trump to Musk…," one X user quipped.

Others humorously tagged Elon Musk's official account, sarcastically telling him, "You look like your younger brother!"
