Indian cricketer, Virat Kohli is no stranger to being a trending topic of discussion on social media, but this time, it’s not for his cricketing prowess or a viral dance move—it’s because of his uncanny identical twin! Turkish actor, Cavit c, known for playing ‘Dogan Bey’ in the Turkish historical drama, Dirilis: Ertugrul, has left the internet in shock with his striking resemblance to the star cricketer. A snip from Guner’s look from the show has since taken social media by storm, and fans seem to be having a great time with the new meme-fest!
Fans dig out Virat Kohli’s look-alike
It all started when a Reddit user posted a screengrab from the Turkish TV show named Dirilis: Ertugrul, featuring Cavit Cetin Guner. In the snap, the actor sported a similar bearded look, and the resemblance is so uncanny that even Anushka Sharma would have to look twice. To make things more amusing, the Redditor accompanied the photo with the caption:
“Anushka Sharma’s husband’s TV show debut.”
The post instantly grabbed attention, with users stunned by how similar the actor looked to Kohli, especially with his rugged beard, intense expression, and warrior attire. The resemblance was so close that many fans struggled to believe that Cavit and Kohli weren’t the same person. The post quickly gained traction, sparking a flurry of memes and witty reactions across social media.
One fan wrote, “This is no joke! The first time I saw this Dogan Bey character, I thought, what’s Kohli doing in a Turkish series?” Another joked, “Kohli’s secret life as a 13th-century warrior is finally exposed!” A third user wrote, “Dont tell me he is NOT Virat but someone else. Damn!!!”
‘Turkish Kohli’ takes over the internet
The resemblance between Virat and Cavit was so close that many users on social media struggled to digest that they were, in fact, two different individuals. Considering the number of times that Kohli becomes a viral topic of discussion for one reason or the other, one fan hilariously remarked what Virat might feel when he saw these random posts about him. The comment read:
“Virat the moment he sees a random reel or post about them, Virat (in his head): Bro… can I breathe in peace, or should I check if my sneeze went viral too?”
Who is Kohli’s identical twin, Cavit Cetin Guner?
Cavit Cetin Guner is a Turkish actor who has appeared in several Turkish TV series. His resemblance to Virat Kohli once again made him an internet sensation among Indian fans.
Apart from their eerily similar facial features, some fans found the comparison between Kohli and Cavit’s character quite poetic. A Twitter user commented, “Kohli’s dominance on the cricket field and his warrior-like spirit match the legendary ‘Ertugrul Bey’. It’s like he was born for this role!” Another shared Cavit’s photo and wrote, “What is Virat Kohli doing in a Turkish drama?”
