Internet goes gaga over Pakistani doctor looking for accommodation

After posting a simple ad looking for a room for rent in New York City, 26-year-old Dr Rehan Munir seems to have gained a lot of fans.

Munir posted an ad on Gypsy Housing -- a closed Facebook group for people looking for roommates and accommodation -- earlier this month. "I'm Rehan and I'm looking to rent a furnished room on the Upper East Side, Upper West Side or Midtown Manhattan,' he said in the post.



"I'm professional, friendly and easy to live with. Most of all, cleanliness is of utmost priority to me. Please let me know if you have any leads."

However, instead of potential living arrangements, Munir garnered fans and even a marriage proposal. "You can totally find a room for $800! Just will have more than a few roomies, so be warned. Also, and I apologize if this is inappropriate, but umm ... boyyyy you fine!" said Paige Kendrick on Facebook.

Speaking to Huffington Post, Munir said he never expected such an 'enthusiastic' response. “It was pretty overwhelming. I wrote it and the next day I wake up and I see my post has been inundated with messages and it’s reached a number of blogs locally and internationally. I found it hilarious! The internet is really an unpredictable place.”

To answer the question on everyone's mind though, Munir told HuffPos, "I’m single but trying to focus on my career at the moment."



Not only is Munir a doctor, he's also appeared in an ad for Hush Puppies Pakistan. Talk about being multi-talented!
