Veteran Actor BIGB's Lookalike Kanubhai Thakkar Passes Away.
Kanubhai Thakkar, a lookalike of veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan, passed away earlier this week, leading to confusion about another lookalike Shashikant Pedwal, another famous lookalike of the senior actor.
When contacted, President of All India Lookalike association Arif Khan told the news channels, "Kannubhai Thakkar was old and not well. He would often visit Amitabh Bachchan's home on his Sunday meeting days. Unfortunately, videos of Shashikant Pedwal, who has been doing a lot of work in the lockdown, are being used while reporting about Kannubhai Thakkar's demise."
Shashikant Pedwal, who was recently invited by Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan on KBC for his good work during the COVID-19 pandemic, said that he had to put out a clarification video stating that he is well that his photographs/videos are being used in place of Kanubhai Thakkar.
He stated, "I would like to tell people that I am alive, and it was Kanubhai who has passed away, and the confusion happened after my videos and photographs were used in the reports."
