Thank you for having me.
Dr.Sharma, this isn’t the first time we’ve seen a celebrity look-alike go viral.What is it about these doppelganger videos that captures the internet’s attention so quickly?
It’s a perfect storm of factors. Firstly,the uncanny resemblance triggers a sense of captivation,even a slight unease in some. We’re naturally drawn to things that are familiar yet slightly off. Secondly, social media’s interconnectedness allows these videos to spread like wildfire. A humorous observation or clever meme can amplify the reach exponentially.
The article mentions humorous reactions and even some political commentary surrounding the “Pakistani Elon Musk.” How do these platforms shape and amplify these types of narratives?
Social media acts as an echo chamber. Initial reactions, like those witty comments about a “Pakistani Trump” or hoping the doppelganger can “fix America,” set the tone. Algorithms then prioritize content that reinforces these sentiments, creating a feedback loop. This can lead to the amplification of humor, political opinions, and even misinterpretations.

I don’t think it’s necessarily specific to Pakistan. Rather, it’s the unexpected juxtaposition of a globally recognized figure with an everyday setting that creates the intrigue.The surprise element of seeing someone resembling a powerful person engaging in ordinary activities is inherently shareable and generates buzz.
Do these viral moments have any long-term impact, or are they fleeting distractions in the endless scroll of social media?
While many viral sensations fade quickly, they can have lasting effects.They contribute to the cultural conversation, influence trends, and sometimes even create opportunities for the individuals involved. In certain specific cases, these viral moments can lead to marketing opportunities, brand collaborations, or even propel someone into the spotlight for a sustained period.

As algorithms become more sophisticated and social platforms fragment, creating truly viral content will be more challenging. Authenticity and relatability will be key. People are becoming increasingly discerning, and they’re more likely to engage with content that feels genuine and aligns with their values. we may also see a rise in niche viral moments, catering to smaller, highly engaged communities.
