After accomplishing a historic moon landing through its Chandrayaan-3 mission, India became the fourth country to do so and the first to land near the lunar South Pole.
Congratulations poured in from across the globe, and people in Pakistan were not untouched by the excitement.
Many of them, including Fawad Chaudhry, the ex-minister of information and broadcasting in the Imran Khan government, also praised the moon landing.
Hours before the Chandrayaan-3 landing, Fawad Chaudhary had urged the Pakistani government to broadcast the event live on national television. This request triggered a debate on Pakistan’s social media platforms, prompting a YouTuber to gather public opinion on whether India’s big moon moment should be televised.
The responses from Pakistani citizens were so amusing that they quickly gained traction and went viral on social media platforms.

In the viral video, a Pakistani citizen quipped that they were already living on the moon. Reason: Both the moon and Pakistan lacked essentials like water, gas, and electricity. With this hilarious comparison, he said that given the similar conditions, Pakistanis really didn’t need to venture to the moon, as it was just like their circumstances at home.
The video garnered significant attention from social media users.
“You have to concede it to them. Pakistanis have the best sense of humour, even in the most difficult of times. No wonder they produced the best stand-up performers,” commented a user.
“Lol! This guy can make a career in standup comedy,” wrote another user.
“Positivity and humour top marks to this bro across the border,” said a third user.
