Four-year-old great-grandson of Pakistani business tycoon Malik Riaz had a Sidhu Moose Wala-themed birthday party that had netizens in fits.
Usually, kids opt for cute cartoon-themed birthday parties with friends, but that is not the case for rich people, especially if you’re grandpa is one of the largest and most prominent real estate moguls in Pakistan.
From posters of the late Punjabi rapper plastered everywhere to birthday cake with references to Moose Wala’s hit tracks “Dil De Na Mada” and “295,” the birthday party’s decorations left no room for doubt about the chosen theme.
Of course, the true showstopper of the event was the great-grandson himself, who went all out to channel the essence of Sidhu Moose Wala. He dressed up as the late rapper, complete with a turban, a Balenciaga hoodie, and even toy machine guns.
The photos from the lavish and thematic birthday party have since gone viral on social media, eliciting a mix of astonishment and amusement.
Twitterati had a field day reacting to the extraordinary celebration. One user couldn’t help but exclaim,
Malik Riaz’s great grandson having a Sidhu birthday party is the craziest thing I’ve seen this week! 😂

However, not all reactions were positive. Some expressed concerns about the rich and famous promoting gun culture to children. One comment noted,
Wearing a Balenciaga hoodie, flaunting guns at this age, getting inspiration from Sidhu Moose Wala, I can well imagine what this kid will become when he is an adult.

How can one have access to hundreds of billions of rupees and still not know how to dress properly?
