Almost ten years after Arshad Khan — the internet’s beloved “chaiwala” — rose to fame, a new face is charming social media users. Meet the “kapray wala,” a blue-eyed fabric seller from Skardu, whose striking looks have captured hearts across Pakistan.
A brief video of the young man working in his family’s cloth shop in scenic Skardu has gone viral. Viewers are especially mesmerized by his piercing blue eyes, with many drawing comparisons to Arshad Khan — some even calling him more handsome than the chaiwala himself.
The video, originally posted by a female journalist, was quickly picked up by lifestyle pages and influencers, helping the humble shopkeeper become the latest online sensation.
