Mumbai: Akshay Kumar has apparently got an actor whom he can consider if he ever thinks of making a biopic on himself, netizens suggest so after an image of Padman actor's lookalike went viral on social media.
Maajid Mir, a Kashmiri native has amazed the social media users for his uncanny resemblance to Bollywood's hit-machine, Akshay. Mir took over the internet soon after a news channel journalist took to Twitter to share his picture.
