He then plays some poor tennis, and even went on to replace Roger's forehand with a straight drive from cricket. During one last shot, the tennis ball goes out of the court and ends up hitting a car in the parking lot. Arbaaz concludes, “Maybe not everyone can become a tennis legend…” Arbaaz collaborated with the brand working with technology-based businesses.

Reacting to the video, one fan wrote, “This is just unreal.” Another one said, “Now someone cast Roger Federer as Arbaaz Khan please.” Many also went on to call the Arbaaz's ad ‘too good.’

Arbaaz is often called as the doppelganger of Roger Federer. Their resemblance also sparked a memefest on Twitter. Reacting to the comparison, earlier Arbaaz told Hindustan Times in 2019, “I’m aware of this similarity that is being drawn. Not sure if he [Federer] is aware, too (laughs). But, but I’d love to meet him in person. I’m a huge Federer fan. I’ve come to know that he has a house in Dubai and when he plays the Dubai Open, he stays there. I plan to try and meet him during that time."

Arbaaz Khan is the son of Salim Khan and Salma Khan, and brother of actor Salman Khan, Sohail Khan, Alvira and Arpita Khan Sharma. He was recently seen in Sony Liv's series Tanaav alongside Manav Vij, Rajat Kapoor, Satyadeep Misra, Zarina Wahab and Sukhmani Sadana, among others. Set against the backdrop of Kashmir in the year 2017, Tanaav is a fictional thriller based on a special force.
