There, it happened again! In another peculiar case of Hollywood celebrity sightings, there was news of Iron Man, Robert Downey Jr (RDJ) himself, taking in the sounds and scenes of Chennai. Needless to add, social media, predictably, went into a giddy overdrive and those lucky to have had themselves selfied with the `star' gushed about it on FB and Twitter. And the ever-obliging 'Robert Downey Jr' shook hands, put his iron arm around grateful shoulders, beamed, strutted, shopped, and pulled off the celebrity act like he was to the manor born.

Even our suggestion that this guy could be a lookalike was met with disgust as fans swore that this was indeed RDJ in his fleshand-blood avatar. So, who was he? Well, he is also an actordirector. But the similarity with the Iron Man ends there. For this was Albert Serrato, known for Redemption (2012), Puppy Love (2010) and Mood (2012). And he sure charmed cine-goers who got their fix of Hollywood glory.

However, this not the first case of mistaken identity or rumours of Hollywood celebrity sighting. A few years ago, none other than filmmaker Steven Spielberg was spotted riding a bike through the roads of an Indian city! There have, however, been instances of Hollywood celebrities making secret trips to India.

Given that these sporadic episodes of Hollywood sightings afford us some good-humoured fun and the chance to indulge in some healthy leg-pulling, we are keeping our eyes peeled for the next Hollywood victim who's gonna be stopping by soon.

Anil Kapoor adds, "I can tell you 100% it's not him. There is no way I would have not known were he coming to India. You can take it from me, it could in no way have been him."
