There is no perfect piece to the camera, then our beloved Chand Nawab. Pakistan’s famous journalist, whose reporting skills have made him an internet sensation and even inspired a character in Kabir Khan’s Bajrangi Bhaijan, essayed by Nawazuddin Siddique. But then in December, 2018, the internet was introduced to Amin Hafeez, who sat on a donkey and delivered his piece-to-camera (PTC). In no time, Hafeez made it to the headlines. People even compared him to Chand Nawab’s antics. And now he made a grand come-back, to say the least. Dressed as an emperor, Hafeez can be seen brandishing a sword and reading the news before signing off, reportedly for Geo News, Lahore. The video has many reasons to make you laugh hard! Forget Chand Nawab, This Pakistani Reporter's Video of Falling off a Donkey While Reporting is Hilarious.
A Pakistan journalist tweeted a behind the scene video that showed Hafeez, dressed in dark green emperor’s dress, flaunting his sword and reading out the news. It appears that the video is shot at the roofing of a palace, with Hafeez asking who arranged a wedding at the historic spot. While the answer to the question remains uncertain, his royal avatar to the reporting is tickling the funny bones of social media. “#Pakistan Famous reporter amin hafeez in action #PTC,” reads the caption of the video. New Chand Nawab in Making, This Pakistani Reporter Goes Overboard for Monsoon Coverage in This Hilarious Viral Video.

Did you like the video? With this clip, one thing is certain that Hafeez has moved on. From interviewing cattle, then riding on a donkey and now to grander things! We wonder what Hafeez has in store for us in terms of live reporting next. It will surely be exciting and funny.
