Top Viral Trends and Videos of Pakistan in 2019

2019 has been an amazing year for Pakistan. So much happened this year and social media played an active role in making interesting trends viral. Social media plays an important role in providing entertainment and causing awareness. It also gives people a platform where they can openly discuss their opinions. Since social media is open to all therefore it represents the true sentiments of the public. It is this public which makes trends and videos viral. Most often those topics which are discussed by people in a comic way get more viral than the serious ones. Also, there are certain trends and videos about which people are sentimental. This sentimental value adds to the interest people have in a certain topic. Some trends and videos this year were extremely amusing. Certain moments were captured which became the centre of attention unexpectedly. The people involved were sometimes from general public but they became celebrities after these moments were captured.

Here are some of the top trends, moments and videos from 2019 which went viral in Pakistan.

Fantastic Cup of Tea

This year started with a video by the ISPR that later on became viral like no other. When Indian Wing Commander Abhinandan Verthaman was captured by the Pakistani army, no one was expecting this development to turn into such an unforgettable moment for a completely different reason. When Indian Wing Commander Abhinandan Verthaman was asked by the officer interviewing him how his tea was, he replied “the tea is fantastic, thank you.” This fantastic cup of tea became more popular than anything else this year.

This too gave people a reason to make fun of Mrs. Khan and the memes were unstoppable.

The Sleepy Captain

After Pakistan lost yet another match from India during the world cup, people’s sentiments were high. On the one hand Pakistan’s performance was poor and on the other hand, the captain of the team Sarfraz Ahmed was caught Yawning on the field while India was batting. This moment was captured by camera and it went viral like no other. Pakistani fans were extremely angry, some people made memes to make fun of what he was doing on the field. This picture was rather ironic in some ways too since it showed the lackluster attitude of the team perfectly well. Sarfraz Ahmed even had to clarify his position later on!
