Who Is Rishi Sunak?
For the unversed, Rishi Sunak is a British politician who has been made Prime Minister of the United Kingdom on 25 October 2022 and Conservative Party Leader since 24 October 2022.

Some joked that Akshay would make the ideal actor to perform as UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in the popular drama series The Crown. The series is based on Queen Elizabeth II's life, reign, and significant moments in British politics and history. However, because the show is set to conclude after its sixth season, the likelihood of that happening will be slim. The decision to incorporate the deaths of Prince Philip and the Queen in the production is still up in the air.
Twitterati was quick to point out the eerie similarities between Rishi Sunak and Akshay Kumar. A popular clip from Namastey London is also making the rounds on the internet. The internet has already cast Akshay Kumar as UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in 'The Crown,' and folks are calling the clip from Namaste London an audition tape for the same.
Namastey London's Scene
After hearing someone criticise India as a "land of snake charmers," Akshay Kumar's character, Arjun Ballu Singh, impressed many with his response in Namastey London. Katrina Kaif played Jasmeet Malhotra, who translated the speech in English.
This little speech gave information to some and pride to others, and it became one of the film's highlights. What makes the scenario noteworthy is Arjun's candour and sincerity as he discusses the achievements of the 5000-year-old Indian civilisation, as well as Jazz's growing pride as she imparts this information to their non-Indian audience.

If not for the height difference, pretty sure Rishi Sunak and Akshay Kumar could qualify as doppelgangers.
