After Ahaan Panday and Vedang Raina, influencer Tanzeel Khan joins the doppelgänger multiverse as Saiyaara release breaks the internet
First Ahaan, then Vedang... now Tanzeel? Internet declares a doppelgänger trifecta
The memes were already thriving when Ahaan's Saiyaara stills were placed next to Vedang's brooding poses. Wavy hair, sharp jawlines, intense gazes, the resemblance was unreal. But now, Instagram reels are showing Tanzeel's close-ups... and the internet is spiralling. Fans swear these three are the same man just rebranded in different aesthetics.
Who is Tanzeel Khan & why is everyone suddenly talking about him?
If you have been on the internet since the Musical.ly days, you already know Tanzeel Khan. He was that smooth-transition king, part of the iconic DAMNFAM clan with Mrunu Panchal, Anirudh Sharma, Manav, and Unnati. But he didn't stop there, Tanzeel also dipped into music, dropping soulful tracks and carving a solid space in the indie scene.
Fast forward to now, and Tanzeel is going viral for something completely different: looking like Ahaan Panday's twin from another timeline. Reels with side-by-sides of Tanzeel and Ahaan have fans screaming in the comments, claiming the resemblance is 'too damn uncanny to be real.'
Social media is in meltdown mode after Saiyaara's release
It started with people casually pointing it out. Now it is a full-blown meme war. X (formerly Twitter) is flooded with 'Ahaan-Vedang-Tanzeel' edits, wild conspiracies, and even movie plot suggestions. One user joked, 'Can we get a Bollywood thriller with all three playing conmen brothers who do identity swaps?' Honestly, sign us up.
Finally we got the male counterpart of Raveena Tandon-Twinkle Khanna pic.twitter.com/GmW2pKVXcu
The viral caption that really broke the internet? 'We got the male version of Raveena-Twinkle. But now there's a third one. Is this a glitch in the matrix or Bollywood's best prank yet?'
Meanwhile, Saiyaara is slaying the box office
In case you forgot how this madness started—Saiyaara, starring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, is now the highest-grossing Hindi debut film ever with Rs 83 crore in just three days. And all this without traditional pre-release promo. Director Mohit Suri clearly knew what he was doing, just like Aashiqui 2 days.
And while Ahaan and Aneet take over cinemas, Tanzeel Khan is taking over timelines. Maybe it is time for Bollywood to cast all three and give the internet the chaotic cinematic crossover it deserves.

Superman 2 Weeks India Box Office: James Gunn's superhero flick performs decently in India; Nets little under Rs 45 crore after 2nd Thursday
Superman, directed by James Gunn and starring David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, Nicholas Hoult and others has completed two weeks at the Indian box office on a decent note. The movie has neither underperformed, nor has it overperformed. DC's poor recent track record didn't help prospects much, and whatever Superman could manage amidst stiff local and international competiton, it did. Superman Collects Rs 43.40 Crore Net After 2 Weeks At The Indian Box Office After two weeks, the movie's total collections stand at Rs 43.40 crore net. It should be adding another Rs 3.60 to 5.60 crore net, to end its run between Rs 47 and 49 crore net. The Fantastic Four: First Steps shall barge into most of its performing screens from week 3, and thus not much is expected from the movie after week 2. The Day Wise India Net Collections Of Superman Are As Under Particulars India Net Collections Week 1 Rs 32.75 crore 2nd Friday Rs 1.65 crore 2nd Saturday Rs 3 crore 2nd Sunday Rs 3.35 crore 2nd Monday Rs 70 lakh 2nd Tuesday Rs 85 lakh 2nd Wednesday Rs 60 lakh 2nd Thursday Rs 50 lakh Total Rs 43.40 crore net in 2 weeks Note: The Collections don't include 3D handling charges Superman Targets A Lifetime Global Cume Of Over USD 600 Million; Can It Outgross Man Of Steel? Superman has seen its best response in the domestic market. The film is sure to cross the USD 350 million mark and if lucky, it shall also break into the USD 400 million club. After a generally underwhelming international start, the movie held reasonably in the days to follow. It is due to this hold that a USD 600 million global is now a foregone conclusion. What really needs to be seen is whether it can show some strong late legs to match the collections of Man Of Steel, the last standalone Superman film. The difference between both films is precisely of the reputation that the DC brand enjoyed; It was at an all time high back in the early 2010s, and now it's not. Obviously inflation is another factor, but we are living in unprecedented times when theatrical isn't as big as it was before Covid.

Watch: Young Boy Takes Blind Pizza Taste Test, Guesses Their Chain Stores Like A Pro
The world of food is full of delightful surprises, from the perfect bite of a burger to the most decadent chocolate desserts. But every now and then, we come across something that truly defies expectations. In a similar awe-inspiring video shared on Instagram, an 8-year-old boy flaunted his skills to pinpoint the exact pizza chain store behind each delicious pie he tasted. If that's not impressive enough, he did it all while blindfolded. In the video, George's father asks him to decide on an activity. Without hesitation, the young boy replies he would like to do a blind taste test where he tastes pizzas and guesses what store it came from. The next scene shows him sitting on a counter with a blindfold on. For the first pizza, he recognises the "small crust" of the pie by touch. He adds, "I taste an olive in there, is it Olive Garden?," correctly guessing the first pizza store. He rates it 50/50. Next, George takes a pizza slice in hand and mentions that its "long and pointy at the top," declaring it to be from Dominoes. His parents tell him that he is correct and ask for a rating. He rates it a "thumbs up out of 10". Not surprisingly, George guesses the remaining 3 pizzas from Pizza Hut, Little Ceasers and Papa John's correctly. His mother exclaims, "You read pizzas better than words." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ashley Seely (@thedashleys) Pizza lovers were impressed with young boy's pizza knowledge. Take a look at the comments: One user wrote, "George has been waiting for this opportunity his whole life." Another added, "Thought he was just pulling dad's leg to get tons of pizza. Turns out, this kid reads pizza like it's braille." "Kid's a pizza Sommelier," read a comment. A viewer penned, "Bro had a super power he's been wanting to show the world."
