Hilarious Moment: Shah Rukh Khan Mistaken as Virat Kohli by a Popular YouTuber During ‘Jawan’ Preview; Trolls Playfully Comment, “Haan Hai… Peeche Anushka Sharma Bhi Hai”
Shah Rukh Khan has been the talk of the town ever since the makers of Jawan dropped the official trailer. The actor will be seen in an action avatar for Atlee’s directorial after returning to films with Siddharth Anand’s Pathaan. The film also marks the Bollywood debut of South sensation Nayanthara, and features Vijay Sethupathi and Deepika Padukone.
While many in Bollywood have been lauding the first rushes, a recent video of an American YouTuber mistaking SRK for Virat Kohli has gone viral. The YouTuber, who goes by the name ‘IShowSpeed’, posted a video on his YouTube channel reviewing the Jawan preview. However, he ended up screaming ‘Virat Kohli’ upon seeing SRK.
The video has been shared widely on social media, with many people finding it funny. However, some have also criticized the YouTuber for his mistake.
The video was shared by ScoopWhoop Instagram. It begins with the YouTuber giving strange yet funny reactions as the Jawan preview plays. However, he soon becomes a laughingstock when he mistakes the superstar for Virat Kohli. The YouTuber pauses SRK’s scene during the preview and screams “Virat Kohli!” It is unclear if he is obsessed with the Indian cricketer, but he clearly does not recognize Shah Rukh Khan.
The moment the video surfaced, Indians, especially the SRK fans, took to social media to troll the YouTuber. One of the Insta users wrote, “Lol. Typical Americans, never coming out of their Hollywood cocoon before judging other world cinema.” Another said, “Bro thinks Virat Kohli has 1.2 billion copies.”

He’s got Anushka Sharma behind him.” The video has been shared widely on social media, and many people have found it funny. However, some have also criticized the YouTuber for his mistake.
