Rozi Khan is a waiter in a roadside restaurant in Rawalpindi and is considered a doppelganger of Peter Dinklage.
He gained traction on social media for his resemblance with Peter Dinklage. He now wishes to meet Dinklage in real. Peter Dinklage plays Tyrion Lannister in famous fantasy HBO series of ‘Game of Thrones’.
He came to public attention after the son of the restaurant owner he works in posted his picture on social media.
“In the beginning, they started calling me Peter Dinklage. After that, I saw his show, and then slowly, slowly I became famous.” He said a few months ago he did not know who Peter Dinklage is.

Not just facial features, they also share similar heights as both men are also 4 to 5 feet.
Rozi Khan now enjoys international fame after an international news agency reached to interview him.
“I don’t mind. A lot of my pictures have been taken, that’s why I have become very famous everywhere”, he said to the international news agency.
“Wherever I go, someone says to me: ‘Sir, who is this man with you on Facebook’, I say that he is my friend. ‘He looks like you’. I tell them he is my brother. It’s not a bad thing,” said Khan.
