OMG! Throwback to when Himesh Reshammiya’s duplicate showed up at Indian Idol

A man dressed like Himesh Reshammiya had once auditioned for Indian Idol.

MUMBAI: A man dressed like Himesh Reshammiya had once auditioned for Indian Idol. Indian Idol has been running on television for several years. While singer-composer Himesh Reshammiya is one of the judges, did you know that there his duplicate once came to try his luck on the show? Singer-composer Anu Malik, who was one of the judges at the time, even walked out during the audition.

A man from Orissa, who introduced himself as Salim ‘Devdas’ Ahmad, came wearing a leather jacket and cap, much like Himesh did in the mid-2000s. He entered the room singing Aashiq Banaya Aapne.

Alisha Chinai, who was on the judges’ panel, suggested that Salim’s look was inspired but he denied it.

As Salim began singing Kahin Karti Hogi Woh Mera Intezar from Phir Kab Milogi, Alisha asked him to stop several times but he continued till he finished. “Sing one song of the singer you are dressed like," Anu told him.

“But we are going to have to listen to the entire song. We are going to be tortured to death,” Alisha warned. Salim began singing Aye Meri Zohrajabeen from Phir Hera Pheri.

Mid-song, Anu and Alisha excused themselves from the audition, leaving their co-judges, Javed Akhtar and Udit Narayan, to bear the brunt.

Salim was rejected but before leaving the room, he grabbed the audition pass card lying in front of Anu and made a run for it. He was caught by security and the card was retrieved before he was escorted out.
