A moment of curiosity rippled across Pakistan after a video of a foreign influencer chanting “Jai Shree Ram” on the streets went viral. The man in the clip, identified as Russian content creator Maxim Shcherbakov, captured global attention for his unusual yet heartwarming interaction in the country.

In the video, Maxim can be seen wearing what seems to be some Pakistani uniform, walking down a bustling street as he confidently chants “Jai Shree Ram.” Behind him, several locals can be seen holding Pakistan flags, smiling and joining in with good humour and interest.

What began as a seemingly spontaneous moment soon turned into a scene of genuine cultural curiosity and positivity. Instead of reacting with hostility or anger, many locals began echoing the chant. The clip, now viral on social media, has become a talking point for its unexpected display of harmony.

The short clip has spread like wildfire across multiple platforms, racking up thousands of views and sparking an outpouring of comments from both Indian and Pakistani users. Some found the exchange wholesome, and some viewed it as a remarkable example of how shared respect can transcend religious boundaries.

One Instagram user commented, “Yeh koi Indian hai pichhle janmon ka” (He must’ve been an Indian in his past life). Another said, “People here know how to respect other religions instead of getting insecure.”

A third user wrote, “The one who ruled us is now spreading Hinduism after knowing us.” Meanwhile, another user offered a more reflective take, writing, “That’s a normal thing in Pakistan. Everyone has the right to follow their religion. You can find many videos where Hindus and other communities celebrate their festivals peacefully.”

The video struck a chord not only for its unexpected setting but also because it highlighted how religious coexistence continues to thrive quietly in many parts of Pakistan — often away from the headlines.

In fact, this is not the first time videos showcasing Hindu cultural celebrations in Pakistan have gone viral. Just recently, a clip from the country’s Navratri festivities made waves online. Shared by Preetam Devria, a Hindu resident of Pakistan, the video showed men and women dressed in colourful traditional attire, joyfully dancing garba and dandiya to festive beats.
