A SINGING pudding seller in rural Pakistan has been dubbed President-elect Donald Trump's top lookalike.
At a bustling market in the eastern Punjab province, one vendor with a platinum blonde quiff and white, aged face gets more business than others for obvious reasons.
Locals and visitors alike cannot tear their eyes from the Trump doppelganger Saleem Bagga, 53.
The dessert vendor with albinism doesn't just wow customers with his stark similarities to Trump - but with his singing voice too.
One local resident Mohammad Yaseen said: "We feel as if Trump has come here to sell kheer (pudding).
"When he sings to sell kheer, we come down to him."
The 53-year-old spends his time pushing his bright, colorful wooden cart along the road delivering the milky pudding to disbelieved locals.
As he sells his pudding, Bagga sings the lyrics to a Punjabi song: "Now you come down to me my love, don't delay, my eyes are tired of waiting."
People can't get enough of the Trump lookalike - or his dessert either.
One local resident Imran Ashraf, a clear fan of Bagga's, said: "His kheer is really delicious.

"We talk to him and we take selfies with him and we tell our friends that we have taken these pictures with Trump."
Meanwhile Bagga is unfazed from the sheer volume of attention and cameras that follow him through the marketplace - and even back to his home neighborhood in the district of Sahiwal.
He said: "My face resembles Donald Trump, that is why people take selfies with me.
"I feel very good.
"Donald Trump [sir], you have won the election, now visit here and eat my kheer, you will really enjoy it."
Trump will officially be sworn in as the 47th president of the United States on January 20, 2025, in a historic ceremony in Washington DC.
This event will mark the transfer of power from Joe Biden to Trump, who is returning to the White House for a rare non-consecutive second term.
The inauguration will take place at the iconic US Capitol building, where both the president-elect and vice president-elect will take their oaths of office.
JD Vance, the vice president-elect, will be the first to take his oath, followed by Trump as he embarks on his next chapter in the nation’s highest office.
How Trump’s first year in White House will be shaped
By Juliana Cruz Lima, Foreign News Reporter
DONALD Trump's first year back in the White House will have one main goal - and his success or failure will define the world's future for the years to come.
The 78-year-old Republican's key aim as the world rings in 2025 will be to "end wars", according to top political analyst Alan Mendoza.
Mendoza, executive director of the Henry Jackson Society, told The Sun Trump will be focused on "deal-making" as he looks to reshape the world and put America First.
Ukraine and Russia, the Middle East and roiling tensions around China in East Asia will all be in Trump's firing line as seeks to deliver a message of peace through strength.
“Trump ends wars. That’s his message, and that will likely be his goal for 2025.
“What that means in practice, we’re unclear at this stage.
"But if you look at past practice, it’s the idea of some kind of deal where he says, 'I’m going to create a deal that brings wars to an end, that brings enemies together, whether they like it or not. I’m going to be the arbiter of peace'."
This deal-making approach could have far-reaching consequences, especially in hotspots like Ukraine, the Middle East, and East Asia.
Mendoza added: “We’re already seeing positioning taking place in Ukraine, with President Zelensky and President Putin trying to get their ducks in a row before Trump takes over.
"The same thing is happening in the Middle East."
