Arshad Khan: Handsome Pakistani Tea Seller Turned Model Gets TV Makeover

Darpan News Desk IANS, 26 Oct, 2016 09:59 AM
    Arshad Khan went from tea seller to model after his photo was shared around the world and now he has been given a TV makeover.
     
    The ‘dreamy-eyed’ chai wala found overnight fame after being snapped by photographer Jiah Ali working at a bazaar in the Pakistani capital of Islamabad.
     
     
    Dubbed a ‘hot-tea’ by his fans, the 18-year-old has since appeared on Good Morning Pakistan where he was given a makeover and photographed by Aley Bhaidani, from the IdeaTic Wedding Photography Studio. 
     
    After a quick haircut during the TV appearance, Khan modelled a couple of suits before trying on a sherwani.
     
     
    Meanwhile, the photographer who saw her photo go viral has also responded to the teenager’s new found fame.
     
    “I took his picture, it went viral, that is all there is to it. I’m glad I could have helped him and wish the best for him and hope he makes something good out of this opportunity,” Ms Ali explained.
     
     
    In an interview with Pendu Production, Ms Ali discussed the photo in more detail, explaining: “I was attracted to the entire scene that presented itself to me, the perfect amount of sunlight, the hustle and bustle of crowd around his stall, his concentration in his task, it was a combination of all these factors which led me to take his picture.”
     

    She added: “I am happy that I was able to help the young lad, and I cannot take the entire credit myself.
     
     
    “I just happened to be there at the right time to be able to take and share his picture …”
     
     
    Online retailer fitin.pk has already signed Khan up on a modelling contract and the teenager says he is also interested in acting offers.
