A doppelganger named Akram, who lives in Jordan and is a well-known photographer told Mirror, “I feel good and happy when people recognise me as I look similar to the King of Bollywood – Shah Rukh Khan. When I go out to work or any other purpose, people talk to me and take a selfie with me. I give a smile but always say that I am Akram-al-Issawe. I respect Mr. Khan and never want to play with his name. But what can I do? God has given me this face – which many people like and so do I.” The Jordan based photographer hopes that he meets SRK soon. He also said that the world is too small. Maybe someday he will meet the King someday.”
