Top Absurdistan Story of the Day:
Meet Turkish star Engin Altan, who needs no introduction in Pakistan as the swashbuckling slayer of infidels “Ertugrul” in a series about the origin story of the Ottoman Empire popularised by PM Imran Khan.
Meet Turkish star Engin Altan, who needs no introduction in Pakistan as the swashbuckling slayer of infidels “Ertugrul” in a series about the origin story of the Ottoman Empire popularised by PM Imran Khan.
The handful of Pakistani stars are overexposed. Indian actors are banned. A wildly popular actor from a friendly Muslim country is brand ambassador gold right? Crossovers. Collaborations. Win win.
After all Esra Bilgic is raking it in. Phones. A telco. Clothes. Never mind the men who stalked her Insta for the beach photos, but mentally dressed her in a shuttlecock.
But the male lead for Pakistan’s most-watched drama? “He’s coming in September,” announced Blue World City, a housing scheme. But real estate is more often than not a dodgy business here. And Blue World turned out to be no different. And so Engin’s first visit went belly up.
Luckily for Engin, there were no shortage of offers or Pakistan fans. He happened to meet the pimped up heir of a business owner and Tik Toker in Turkey. “Come to Lahore. Meet a lion. Meet the chief minister. Become my brand ambassador. Be my bestie.”
Mian Kashif Zameer is the son of a sessions judge, running his father’s company Chaudhry Group of Companies. If that wasn’t enough of a red flag, he wears four kilos of gold. And has a pet lion.

After a breathless trip to Lahore featuring lions and a chief minister, Mian Kashif and his personal ghaazi mixed friendship with business. “One million dollars and a South African bodyguard”, offered the Lahori larka. After all, Engin had given him a gold ring.
The hair. The pet. The purple chairs. That cherubic face. The sessions judge with a business. The gold. My goodness, the bling. Who knew there are eight alleged cases of fraud against the Tik Toker - fraud, car theft and robbery? https://thecurrent.pk/kashif-zameer-backs-out-of-deal-pays-half-money-to-ertugrul-star/
Friendship ended.
What other fraudulent Pakistani business will reach out next to Engin Altan? Fool me once, fool me twice.
