One such image was shared by 'Kaabil' director Sanjay Gupta on Twitter who thought it was Imran Khan and not Daniel Radcliffe. Netizens too were shocked and believed that it was the Delhi Belly star. "Is this Imran khan?", "Even I thought, it is Imran Khan", "long lost twins" and many more such comments started coming in.

Meanwhile, Daniel Radcliffe has denied that he will be playing Wolverine and doesn't intend to either. In a media interaction, Daniel was quoted saying, "There was that whole thing where I made, what I thought was, an obvious joke about, I think, I said that [I’d be] Wolverine if he’d been shrunk in a hot wash, and then people thought that that was serious. I got onto set on my next job in Australia and people were like, ‘So you’re playing Wolverine? That’s awesome man!’ and I was like, ‘No, no, no, that was a joke.’ Most of the films that I love I don’t think I would want to see remade. And I certainly don’t think that I would want to be in the remakes of them."
