Social media is going frenzy over the spotting of the infamous ‘Jon Snow’ from the much crazed ‘Game of Thrones’ in Pakistan’s capital city Islamabad.

The HBO’s show ‘Game of Thrones’ has a lot of hype in Pakistan and the followers of the show were shocked when the founder of a local page on Facebook tweeted a picture of a guy that had a eerie resemblance with the main character of the show.

One of the followers of the page commented, “All hail Jon of house Targaryen and Stark. The resurrected, The first of his name, The white wolf, The King of the Andals, The Rohynar and the first Men, Lord of the seven kingdoms, protector of the realm, The Prince that was promised, ex Lord commander of the nights watch, Lord of winterfell, warden of the North, The King in The north, The beater of bastard, friend of the free folk And Knower of nothing.”

The Doppelganger Gohar Abbasi himself was shocked to see his picture, he even commented on the picture saying that’s him in the viral photo.

Talking to Express Tribune, Abbasi said, "Honestly some friends had been calling me Jon Snow as a joke and every so often a strange would say it too, but I never expected for it to become a meme".
