Soon after the ceasefire between India and Pakistan, Pakistani social media singer Chahat Fateh Ali Khan released a patriotic track titled Meray Watan Meray Chaman. The song quickly circulated online, catching attention not just for its content but also for the way people reacted to it.
The reactions on social media were swift and filled with sarcasm. One user wrote, ¡°Pakistan just launched an all-out attack on India - far worse than any massed nuclear attack. Ok, folks - it's over. I surrender and order full and unconditional surrender of all Indian forces. This is too much to bear.¡± Another post compared the song¡¯s impact to a national threat. Grammy-winning artist Ricky Kej joined the commentary and called the song a complete ¡°horror.¡± Meanwhile, one viewer quipped, ¡°Watan and chaman both upgraded.¡±
Social media didn¡¯t stop at sarcastic posts. A user commented, ¡°Aliens are beautiful than him,¡± while another said, ¡°We should launch the very talented Anam Ali and Dhinchak Pooja against the Pakistani onslaught on India. Our Singer-400 Defence system.¡± Others posted humorous musical replies, claiming to offer musical defences against Chahat¡¯s song. One such post read, ¡°Cheer up, Ana! We've got a defence that's more solid than a plate of army-grade tacos, ready to repel any of those sharp attacks from Pakistan like a pro goalie blocking a penalty shot.¡±

Chahat Fateh Ali Khan had earlier gained traction online with the viral hit Bado Badi and also recreated the popular Karan Aujla song Tauba Tauba. That version received criticism from Aujla himself, who simply said, ¡°Uncle na karo please,¡± in reaction to the cover. These earlier clips were also circulated online in response to the latest release.
The social media discussion extended into India-Pakistan online banter. One user joked, ¡°India ¨C Dhinchak Pooja. Pakistan ¨C Chahat Fateh Ali Khan. At least Dhinchak Pooja managed to get millions of views.¡±?
Another added, ¡°Just repost Chahat Fateh Ali Khan's video with the Dil Dil Pxxx caption added and that nation will implode due to national embarrassment.¡±?
Yet another suggested keeping ¡°these torturous people¡± like Chahat and Qaim Ali Shah in India.
Chahat¡¯s release may have intended to be a patriotic tribute, but the public reaction turned it into viral comic material fuel for a cross-border meme fest.
