Comedian and actor Sunil Grover has made it a habit to shock audiences week after week with stunning mimicries of Bollywood’s top stars. While he was known for his Shah Rukh Khan act for years, during his recent appearances on the Great Indian Kapil Show, he has added Salman Khan, Gulzar, SS Rajamouli, and others to his repertoire. This week, he transformed into Aamir Khan, and so seamlessly that the internet almost believed it was the star himself.
