IPL 2026: Anshul Kamboj meets look-alike police officer going viral at Vijay’s swearing-in ceremony as Tamil Nadu Chief Minister
It’s not always the case that you meet your look-alike, that too when he made you viral during the swearing-in ceremony of Chief Minister Vijay. Anshul Kamboj finally managed to meet his lookalike and the CSK star was all smiles meeting the police officer.
As all the attention was on the swearing-in ceremony of the new Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, CSK fans found themselves distracted by spotting an unexpected lookalike in the crowd. This picture of a police officer posted near the stage quickly went viral on social media. Due to his uncanny resemblance to Chennai Super Kings fast bowler Anshul Kamboj, fans were convinced that they had seen the fast bowler at the event.
Discussion about Kamboj’s “police version” soon spread online, and Ravichandran Ashwin added to the amusement with one of his trademark humorous reactions to his CSK teammate. Shortly after, CSK themselves joined in on the joke, humorously clarifying that the real Anshul Kamboj was busy with the team in Chepauk before the clash against LSG earlier in the day.
In the video, Kamboj first talked about his look-alike and admitted that there is a lot of similarity between the two persons. The CSK star said that if the cap was not there, he would have been able to evaluate him better.
“Actually, almost everyone sent me this meme on my Instagram as well, so I was like, I was, I’m just telling them, no, I’m not. Everyone is just asking me what are you doing there, what are you doing there? I don’t know what. But actually he looks like me, not completely, but somewhat. Maybe when he takes his hat off, then I’ll get to see more,” Kamboj said.
CSK revealed that Kamboj was actually able to meet the official and the two men laughed and chatted with him during the practice session.
