1...So I was waiting in the car today for my uncle who went to the bank.. There was an old man in some distance, sitting on the footpath holding a bunch of balloons.. I was thinking about this old man, wanting my uncle to return soon so I could go to that man>>
2...I& #39;ve always been very sensitive regarding old people who work to earn their daily bread..
A young guy approached him, probably 25-26 years old.. He was dressed very finely.. wearing fine shalwar qameez and coat on top of it, cufflinks in tbe sleeves, wrist watch, freshly>>
3...trimmed beard and moustache and neatly arranged jelled hair..He talked to the old man for little while and then left..
What I see after a couple of minutes is that the boy returned with a small blue plastic bag(which probably had some fruits)and 2 more guys with him>>
4...The first guy handed over his phone to one of the two new comers and he held the phone out in a ready posture..the first guy with the shopper in his hand started walking towards the old man.. He shake hands with the old man first.
Then handed him over the shopper>>
5...and finally held the old man’s head between his hands and kissed him on the forehead..
After doing all this he returned to the guy with the phone, watched the video recording.. Oh no, there was some error.. So he went back to the old man, with smile and laughter, took back>>
6...the shopper from his hand and started again to shoot.. The recording guy shouts, "ready steady go!"

I could clearly see the embarrassment on the face of that old man and the uneasiness in his body language..I lost my patience at this point so I stepped out of the car>>
7...and started walking towards them..As I approached them, I directly asked the old man please can you come with me. ? The guys starts speaking where am I taking him and there it is oh! Pukhtana zwanan..I said what do you think are you doing, why are you making fun of this old>>
8...man, does Allah shower his blessings upon you this way. ? The guy starts saying, "zamong khpala marzi da, day baba ta khu nshta masla tata wle masla da" (We shall do as we please, the old man is not having any problem then what& #39;s the matter with you. ?) >>
9...My uncle had returned by then and saw me so he immediately followed me..He stood beside me and asks what& #39;s happening, so I started telling him the whole story.. Meanwhile I recognised the guys face..a cousin sent me his tiktok video once which was exactly similar to>>
10...what happened today and we had a pretty long discussion about him..He told me his whole tiktok account is based on such videos, so I concluded my sentence by enquiring you are the tiktok guy, right. ? He sheepishly says yes and then turns to my uncle and explains>>
11... "lala video de da para jorom chy khalq tay sabq wakhli" (I am making video so that people can learn a good lesson)
My uncle said, bachay is this the only way to spread a good message. ? There was exchange of useless explanation and excuses by the guys until my uncle cut>>
12...it short by saying, bachay you are free to do whatever you want, we are living in a society where no one is accoruntable to no one and no one is there to ask but you have to correct your ways for your own good, you are young blood and there is long brutal life ahead of you>>
13...don& #39;t create mockery out of someone else& #39;s indivence..By this time, people started gathering so my uncle said let& #39;s go..He held my hand and we returned to the car.. We waited in the car until the crowd dispersed, then met the old man and went home.. >>
14...So many thoughts been circulating in my head today.. Have we stooped this low that only for some followers and likes, we are ridiculing someone else& #39;s
deprivation. ? Where is our conscience. ? How do we sleep at night in peace. ? Where are we standing as human beings. ? >>
15...This nation knows all about politicians, judiciary, army, IMF, how wrong the system is running---they know all of it, but they know nothing about basic humananity. ? Their human ethics and moral justice is awake only on social media to share their portion of the good talk. ?
