French-Pakistani TikToker faces trolls but flaunts his pride in Urdu

A French man of Pakistani descent expressed disappointment after being mocked for his Urdu during a recent visit to Pakistan. He often shares videos speaking in Urdu but insists that he remains a “proud Pakistani.”

Known on TikTok as “The French Pakistani,” he has 11.4K followers and 359.8K likes. 

The TikToker explained that during his trip to Pakistan, people ridiculed his accent and questioned his identity. “When I spoke Urdu, people told me I’m not a Pakistani. I don’t know why they say that. They laughed at my Urdu and now I feel like I’ll never go back to Pakistan,” he said in one of his videos.

In another video, he expressed frustration over constant speculation about his background. “People keep guessing my origin. Some say I’m Moroccan, French, Algerian or Nigerian, but they’re all wrong. No one has truly discovered where I’m from,” he remarked.

Despite the trolling, he insisted he will not let negativity affect him.

He shared a TikTok video, sporting a green jersey with Pakistani and Palestinian flags imprinted on it. He called himself the “real Pakistani” who represents his country to the world.

Interestingly, many TikTok users admired his unique French-accented Urdu, with several commenting that it was their first time hearing the language spoken in such a way.
