We’ve seen various versions of the Kiki Challenge trending for a while now, several in Pakistan too. Different Pakistani celebrities also attempted a take on the viral dance and now a foreign visitor has attempted it in an entirely different form.
Eva Zu Beck, a social traveler attempted the Kiki Challenge on a PIA flight.
Eva is basically from Poland/England and is pretty famous for traveling all around the world. She’s known for visiting unusual places and making amazing vlogs and capturing beautiful pictures – as never seen before.
This time around her heart has been set on Pakistan. She’s been visiting different areas of Pakistan and its safe to say that she is ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE with our amazing country.
Just look at the breathtaking pictures she’s been taking *drooling*
Totally flaunting that dress
She has some amazing things to say about Pakistan and we are loving it. *chest swells with pride*
With Independence Day just around the corner, Eva decided to do something unique and make her visit to Pakistan even more memorable.
She wrapped up herself in the Pakistani flag and attempted the Kiki challenge – especially for Pakistan.

However, after posting the video of her Kiki challenge, she started receiving immense backlash from the public!

All because she was holding the flag

And PIA too was bombarded with criticism.
Rather than arranging for dance classes, please focus on delivering a better service. You staff is shit trained. #Markhor nahi apnay andar sy #HaramKhor Kahatam kero. #DumbMarketing #ShitService #PainInAss

After receiving SO MUCH criticism for something that she did only out of love for Pakistan – she deleted the video.
In a short video message, she explained why and how she did the Kiki challenge:
Heartbreaking indeed. She didn’t really deserve the criticism that she got and instead of appreciation for her immense love and patriotism, she got brutally rejected by the Pakistani awam.
Some people were so upset about the way she was treated that they took on Twitter to express their sorrow.
I feel so ashamed uploading this video of Eva Zu Beck.
Poor her didn’t know that what kind of sick mindset she is going to deal with after creating a beautiful video for #KiKiChallange on #14thAugust to celebrate #PakistanIndependenceDay pic.twitter.com/7f5neav6Vb

Dear Chairman NAB,
Sir there are alot pending cases, which need your attention, and this surely is not one of them. She is travel blogger, 'We' know her love & affiliation for Pakistan, may be you dont. There's nothing wrong with what she did. https://t.co/XwXHtcnfEO— Fahad Malik (@Fahad4014) August 13, 2018
I can't believe how Pakistani media is portraying Eva Zu Beck's dance with Pakistani flag as national crisis. Fuck off already.

Others were giving logical explanations
You have a valid point and if people did feel that it was in some way disgraceful then they could have used better means to address their concern rather than being offensive about it. It doesnt hurt to put out opinion as long as it is in a respectful manner

The entire state of events is quite unfortunate and I hope we haven’t traumatized Eva. Anyway, let us know what you think about this in the comments.
