Celebrity journalist Vikram Chandra is in Varanasi in the peak of the election season. Prime Minister Modi recently filed his nomination from Varanasi from where he won the 2014 elections. And while he has been giving interviews to a few journalists, many have found themselves making do with the duplicate. Chandra posted a picture on Twitter with a Modi lookalike from Varanasi.
When in Varanasi…

Twitterati, however, did not let go of this chance to roast Chandra.

Adibas and Reebuk are often misspelt names of brands Adidas and Reebok on fake merchandise.

Chandra quit propaganda and fake news channel NDTV in 2016 to set up ‘Editorji’.
And few couldn’t stop themselves from taking a dig at how Modi never bothered giving interviews to some journalists.
This is the closest some journalists can get to modi…

Earlier, Congress President Rahul Gandhi and Gujarat MLA Jignesh Mevani were also caught posing with a Modi lookalike.
