Pakistan TV shows often create a few timeless memes that often surface on our social media feed. One such Pakistani TV show that gave us a bunch of memes was “Living on the Edge,” popularly known as “Pakistani Roadies” in India. As the name suggests, the reality TV show was the Pakistani adaptation of Indian show Roadies where participants had to cross through a round of auditions to enter the competition. These auditions can be pretty brutal and humiliating but the clips do create some iconic meme content. One such meme that went viral and can still be seen on social media platforms is the “Meri selection ho gyi hai” guy.
A man named Abdul Waheed, went for auditions of the reality show 11 years ago and became an overnight sensation. His hilarious reaction to his selection for the show left everyone in splits and the meme is still used as a template to make present day memes. Sadly, the guy who brought smiles to millions of people across the globe, is now working as a parking valet in Pakistan. With white hair on his head and beard, it is quite difficult to believe he is the same guy in the viral video. Here’s the viral meme for those who forgot.
Abdul Waheed was recently spotted by a Pakistani YouTube channel Dialogue Pakistan. In a conversation with them he revealed that he has been working as a valet in the Sharae Faisal area of Karachi for more than a decade. He also talked about his struggle and how people used to recognise him after the video went viral.
