(MENAFN- Live Mint) As pictures and videos from PV Sindhu and Venkata Datta Sai's“high-profile” wedding reception surfaced, one man stood out -- former US President Bill Clinton.

Social media raved about how international bigwigs attended the Hyderabad event as they shared a video of“Bill Clinton” entering the reception.

The person in the viral videos, who was misidentified as the former US President, was actually Tamil actor Ajith Kumar. Dressed in a suit, the 53-year-old was supporting a sharp grey-hair look, leading to the misunderstanding.

A social media user who first identified Ajith as Clinton shared a video of him with the caption:“Former US President Bill Clinton attending PV Sindhu's marriage. Attended by so many High Profile celebrities.”

In a rare public appearance, Ajith was pictured entering the Novotel Hyderabad Convention Centre alongside his wife, Shalini Ajith, and kids Anoushka and Aadvik.

However, netizens were quick to correct the misunderstanding, as they clarified:“The person in the post is Indian actor Ajith Kumar, not former US president Bill Clinton.”

But not all the users were as direct; some decided to play along, and began a series of sarcastic jokes about the misunderstanding.

“So, Who's accompanying him? Hillary Clinton ? Monika lewinsky?” a user quipped.

A user joked:“Clinton's wife and kids look different!”

“It was Donald Trump. Look again,” another user said.

“He lost some pounds, though,” laughed a user.
