Pakistani Hindu designer named Deepak Perwani, who recently visited Jaipur, India was slammed for praising the country. Highlighting stark differences between the two countries, especially regarding freedom, happiness and infrastructure, he also shared how cities in India felt more pedestrian-friendly compared to Pakistan.
“If you see their lives comparatively, Indians have it better. Happiness abounds. People laugh and live their lives. Women walk freely on the streets, ride bicycles and motorbikes. Even rickshaw pullers and cab drivers use UPI,” said Deepak in an interview with Aamna Haider on her show Something Haute.

“It’s far more dynamic. There are pavements and footpaths too. It’s not a concrete jungle,” he added.
His comments garnered mixed reactions on social media. One user said, “Pakistan is a third-world country with a low economy rate. Who is safe in Pakistan? Not even a 4 year old kid. Wherever you see, Indians are making a name for themselves. Accept the reality and do something productive. Get out of the illusion that we are exceptional and there is no one like us.”
“I have an old picture of Karachi when women were riding motorbikes. And I also have a picture of Mumbai being Bombay, and people were happy to have a mosque beside a temple! Things have changed in both countries, and disappointments are everywhere. But if you like that country more, don’t badmouth, MOVE Out!!” said another user.
“He needs to move to India and spare us!” a third user commented. “Running away isn’t solution. Go go india u would never get respect u r getting here. Instead of making country better they are complaining,” wrote another netizen.
“Depak parwani Sahab is totally right. We should aim to improve our country and, most importantly, our city, " a user commented.
