Pakistan’s golden boy, Arshad Nadeem, has been making waves on social media since his triumphant return from the Paris Olympics. His historic gold medal in the men’s javelin throw has etched Pakistan’s name in the annals of world athletics. While Nadeem’s performance has earned him well-deserved recognition, he has also become the subject of some amusing incidents back home.

In a recent video that has gone viral, Nadeem delivered an Independence Day message to his Pakistani fans. However, the video was accompanied by an unexpected soundtrack: the sound of someone snoring in the background.

“On Pakistan’s Independence Day, I appeal to the people of Pakistan to take a pledge on this day that we stay united,” Nadeem said, his passionate message punctuated by the rhythmic snoring. “Like how on August 8th after I bagged gold at the Paris Olympics we witnessed a wave of joy not only in Pakistan but among Pakistanis worldwide. I wish you stand by me and, like how I have changed my profile pictures on social media for August 14th stating ‘United we stand,’ I want all of you to stand with me and change your profile pictures. Let’s show the world that ‘United we stand.'”

Upon realizing the audible snoring, Nadeem swiftly deleted the video and shared a new one without the embarrassing background noise. But before he could do so, the original video had already gone viral, leaving fans in stitches.

“So Arshad Nadeem dropped a vid on Instagram, and there’s someone snoring in the background. The replies are gold,” one Twitter user commented.

Another user joked, “Arshad Nadeem ko jo Unke Father-in-Law ne jo BHAINS (Buffalo) Gift kiya tha usko Sath me leke sone ka natija (The result of Arshad Nadeem sleeping with the buffalo gifted to him by his father-in-law).”

Despite the snoring mishap, Nadeem’s message of unity resonated with Pakistanis. He was recently honored by the Prime Minister with a cash reward of PKR 150 million (INR 3.5 crore) for his exceptional performance in Paris.
