The Internet had been flooded with images of Junaid Shah ever since he went viral a few years back. The young boy from Kashmir was a doppelganger of Ranbir Kapoor, and he became instantly famous overnight for his stunningly similar looks. However, there is some sad news coming from Kashmir, and it is that Junaid Shah has breathed his last. The Ranbir Kapoor lookalike has reportedly passed away after suffering from a major cardiac arrest.
As per social media reports Junaid Shah was in his late twenties and he passed away at his residence in Srinagar after suffering a major heart attack. The family obviously would be distraught, but there hasn’t been any official statement from them as of yet.

From what we know of Junaid, he studied at Delhi Public School and then completed his further studies from IIPM. He wanted to do modelling post his studies. He was indeed a huge fan of Ranbir Kapoor.
Rishi Kapoor also once had spoken up about Junaid and shared a post which had Ranbir and Junaid side by side. Along with the pics, Rishi Kapoor had penned, “OMG. My own son has a double!!! Promise cannot make out. A good double (sic).”
