Salman Khan look-alike Azam Ansari gets arrested

Actor Salman Khan is a national superstar as we know and just like the many icons of Bollywood, there is an array of people who look similar to these icons and go on to make a living out of being their lookalikes. Such has been the case for actor and performer Azam Ansari as well, who is a striking look-alike of superstar Salman Khan.

Not only that, Ansari is very active on social media as well, where he performs on multiple fronts which include road shows and other things. However, one such event recently led to the breach of a few laws and it led to Ansari getting arrested.

The man was accused of breaching peace at a public place and booked by the Thakurganj police on Sunday. He was shooting for a video on the streets of Lucknow and his shirtless act landed him in trouble.

As one can see in the video, Ansari was dancing to the tunes of Biwi No 1's song at the Ghantaghar Park around 4pm and while a few people applauded, other onlookers reportedly objected to his act, which led to a verbal spat. Due to the commotion, a police team arrived at the spot and tried to calm the locals and even requested Azam to wear his shirt. “Azam refused, leading to resentment in the public which the public demanded action against him. We have booked and arrested him for breach of peace and disturbing public tranquility," an officer was quoted by Times of India.
