‘Hail Modi’: Meet the Indian PM’s uncanny lookalike

Dozens surround one man, chanting pro-Modi slogans.

But the man at the center of attention is Abhinandan Pathak, also known as Nandan Modi — the Indian PM, Narendra Modi’s lookalike.

“I am sure I must have done a lot of good deeds in my previous lives (so) that God has made me look like Mr. Modi. I literally worship him every day and I believe Mr. Modi is an avatar of God,” says Pathak.

As Pathak makes his way into an election rally where Narendra Modi is expected to arrive, more crowds besiege him. His aides struggle to keep them away.

As Modi finishes his speech and leaves the rally, so does Pathak.

Again the crowds follow him.

“Hail Mother India.”

“Hail Modi.”
