Pakistani business tycoon Malik Riaz's four-year-old great-grandson recently celebrated his birthday with the party’s theme centred around late Punjabi rapper Sidhu Moose Wala.
In the photos, the birthday boy was seen dressed as Sidhu Moose Wala. He wore a turban, a Balenciaga hoodie, and was even toting toy machine guns, for his themed birthday party.
The birthday party of Malik Riaz's four-year-old great-grandson was a grand affair, with posters of the late rapper plastered everywhere, and a birthday cake adorned with references to Moose Wala’s hit tracks ‘Dil De Na Mada’ and ‘295’.
The photos from the lavish birthday party were originally shared by Malik Riaz's daughter Aasia Amer on her Instagram account. They were later widely reshared on X (Twitter).
The photos from the lavish Sidhu Moose Wala-themed party had a mix of reactions from internet users. While some expressed amusement at the unique theme, others were left astonished by the extravagance of the celebration. One user on X stated, "Ameer Bachha" while another found it strange to see a small child holding a ‘gun’.
“When you don't know how to spend your ill earned money. Everything about this birthday party is wrong,” wrote a user on X.
Malik Riaz is a business tycoon, touted to be the biggest real estate developer in Pakistan. He is the Founder of Baharia Town Real Estate Development Company.
Malik Riaz Hussain has been accused of bribing former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan through a charitable trust, according to allegations made by Pakistan's Interior Minister.
The lavish birthday party of a four-year-old comes at a time when Pakistan is reeling under an economic crisis. The poor are suffering the most from skyrocketing food and fuel prices as Pakistan’s inflation was at 27.4% in August.
