Arvind Kejriwal's rise from a common man to the leader of the 'Aam Aadmi' has been inspirational. From hosting his maiden rally in Ram Lila Maidan in 2011 to occupying the top seat in the national capital a year after, the Delhi CM has indeed come far in a brief span -very much like the rise of Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor in the 2001 flick 'Nayak'.

That raises the question if Arvind Kejriwal's spectacular climb to power could be made into an inspiring biopic, what would it look like?

Feeding our curiosity is one of YouTube's most famous comedy groups All India Bakchod (AIB) who have not only come up with a very entertaining 4 minute 46 seconds spoof video on the political star, but has also aptly titled it as 'Nayak 2 – The Common Man Rises'.

Starring Arvind Kejriwal and the father of all lampoons these days, 'sanskari babuji' Alok Nath, the video takes jabs left, right and centre at other IIT alumni like Chetan Bhagat as well as Anna Hazare. The parody captures the rise of the Batman-like vigilante to a chief minister whose weapon of choice is protests. And the fun part — the godfather behind the making of this middle-class superhero is none other than the 'sanskaari man', Alok Nath!

So, Arvind Kejriwal designs his entire superhero life - from his symbol (he starts out with a vacuum cleaner, but Alok Nath says that's not middle class enough) to his costume (middle-aged uncle half-sweater and security guard muffler), and then he sets out to fight crime in the nation.

The video ends on a classic note, when Hussain Dalal as Kejriwal tells reporters, "Do minute rukiye main dharna kar ke aata hun." (Please wait for two minutes, I will be back from a dharna).

Directed by Kumar Devanshu, it is a spoof, not a satire, on the whole rising of Arvind Kejriwal, his party, government formation and subsequent developments.

A parody video of epic proportions, this video is already a rage among the netizens and have garnered 25 million views so far.
