Viewers of the popular music show X Factor Uzbekistan experienced a moment of déjà vu when Nursultan Qudaibergen, a contestant from Kazakhstan, took the stage. Audience members and judges immediately drew comparisons to world-renowned Kazakh singer Dimash Qudaibergen.
Everything about the performer seemed familiar — his last name, his resemblance, and even his vocal style. The judges couldn’t hide their surprise, noting that Nursultan’s voice sounded strikingly similar to Dimash’s.
A clip of the performance has since gone viral on social media, particularly on TikTok, where videos featuring Nursultan have garnered thousands of views. Users are debating whether he might be related to Dimash, as photos of the two appearing together have circulated online.
In the comments, some viewers praised the young singer, calling him «the pride of Kazakhstan,» while others criticized him for allegedly copying Dimash’s image and lacking originality. But based on Nursultan’s Instagram activity, those comparisons may be intentional — he openly follows his idol’s career and never misses his concerts.
According to fans, Nursultan’s appearance has made X Factor Uzbekistan even more exciting. Now, everyone is waiting to see whether the «Uzbek Dimash» can live up to the success of his famous namesake.
