Cuban actor, comedian, and impersonator Yaniel Castillo has once again brought laughter to his followers with a fresh parody featuring Sandro Castro, the controversial grandson of Fidel Castro. This time, Castillo portrays a scene imagining how the young Castro might supposedly manage power outages in Havana.

"Stay alert," Castillo quipped in his video, hinting at the satirical nature of the piece that touches on the ongoing energy crisis on the island. His post has sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with many praising his skill in accurately mimicking the speech and mannerisms of the late Cuban dictator's grandson.

Comments like "I'm laughing so hard," "I can't handle this," and "Oh my God, you're amazing," flooded in, as the parody quickly went viral on platforms such as Facebook and Instagram.

This isn't the first time Yaniel Castillo has impersonated Sandro Castro. He has previously captured the carefree demeanor of the young man, who is known for flaunting a luxurious lifestyle on social media, starkly contrasting with the harsh reality faced by most Cubans.

With his signature humor, Castillo continues to use his art to satirize and reflect on the contradictions within Cuban society and the figures embroiled in political and social controversies in the country.
