It’s been almost a week since the very hyped verdict came out against the Sharif family. With the possibility that Nawaz Sharif and fam might be going to jail, things have been…well, there’s just been a lot going on. Needless to say, everyone’s been losing their shit.
For real. Even people in London went berserk!
(Okay, not really – but this never stops being funny.)
But in a world where social media is an extremely important element in our lives, there was absolutely no way that brands and marketing houses could stop themselves from jumping on this glorious bandwagon.
So here we are, with some of our absolute favorite roasts of the week!
Nawaz Sharif ki baat hou and koi zor seh, “Mujhay kyun nikla?!” na cheekhay, aesa kaisay housakta hai?! Presenting, Careem:

I mean…’Afternuun?’ Ungli uthao? Promo kyun nikala?
Okay.
Interestingly, Careem got into trouble for this ad, and people went IN on them for coming off as PTI supporters. The had to officially apologize.
