The Pak tea-seller is being dubbed as the ‘nuclear weapon’ that could be used to unleash ‘surgical strikes’ on Indian girls.

A Pakistani chaiwala (tea-seller) has become an Internet sensation overnight for his debonair looks. An Instagram photo of the chaiwala in Islamabad taken by aspiring photographer Jiah Ali went viral on social media platforms. Overnight, he became top Twitter trend with girls going mad after the latest Internet crush.

According to the photographer, her first two shots of the tea-seller were of him looking down, concentrating on the chai he was making. But the viral moment was captured seconds after he looked up at her.

Since then, the picturesque young man pouring tea has caught the fancy of Internet lady-fans who couldn’t help but drool over his features on the social media.

Some Twitter users also used his picture with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi writing: “Pakistani chaiwala with the Indian chaiwala.” Others compared him with Bollywood stars, claiming he looked better than them.

The tea-seller was soon being dubbed the “nuclear weapon” that could be used to unleash “surgical strikes” on Indian girls.

Netizens from different countries have been observed admiring his outstanding good looks and dashing personality.

His stunning high-fashioned supermodel appearance with blue eyes while pouring tea has forced the people to take to Twitter, wishing he can get some modelling contract.

The real name of Internet fame holder chaiwala is Arshad Khan, who works at Sunday Bazaar (Peshawar Chowk) near vegetable area. Arshad Khan, brother of 17 siblings, expressed his ecstasy on becoming famous in one day.

Talking to reporters, he said he was happy with his overnight popularity but it was irritating when people gather around him for pictures during working hours as he was supposed to work to earn livelihood. Meanwhile, Arshad Khan said that people — girls and boys — had taken hundreds of pictures with him so far.
