Pakistanis never miss a chance to showcase their wit, especially when it comes to the meme game. A viral trend on X asked users to highlight actors who have played vastly different roles, showcasing their versatility.

However, Pakistani users, with their trademark humor, took the trend in a hilarious direction by pairing completely unrelated figures and adding their own spin to it.

Typically, trends like these start with users sharing creative takes, and as some posts go viral, others jump on the bandwagon.

With PTI supporters’ admiration for Donald Trump and Imran Khan's cordial ties, one user cleverly teased them by comparing two prominent political figures.
