Wow! He is 60!
All, Please look at the caption of the pic which was taken on his last birthday at 2010.
I am sure Sharifs paid ET to put this picture (cutting cake) so people can hate IK. Other wise there is no sense to put this pic.
IK without a doubt is the youngest looking sixty on TV.
Oh my God, people don't miss any opportunity to distort IK image, some papers and some other groups had also initiated malicious propaganda on Malala issue and here we are seeing another propaganda, hats off to Noon, you are a truly propaganda genius. Nazi's Gobbler would love to c his offspring working in outstanding fashion. you are leveling the stature of Hitler propaganda machine.
It's crazy how tribune decides to post last year's picture of Imran cutting a cake.
It's even more crazy that people are posting anti Imran posts without reading the first few posts that clarify that it is last year's picture as Imran is not celebrating any birthday this year.
Shame on people for trying to misguide people.
All some people did was wish him birthday on twitter which idon't find offensive but surely there were no parties held to celebrate.
@Ch. Allah Daad: I hope Imran Khan celebrates his next birthday as Prime Minister, but I really hope Nawaz celebrates his next birthday, care free and completely "vaila" in Saudia Arabia. Ameen
Imran is not celebrating his bth'day today, sad for the ppl who rebuff him for no reasons
@Ali Hassan: people on twitter must show respect , Chairman is meeting zakirs in Karachi and condoling them on Shia's death and here people on social media is celebrating his birthday. these are days of grief and i hope people would understand it, anyway wisk IK success ahead.
Knowing that Imran Khan is not celebrating today on account of 10th Muharram, it is really a sinister move to show this picture from some previous year.
Day of Ashura is internationally considered as the day of Mourning and protest against brutality against Grand son of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), Hussain and his family. Shame PTI for celebrating birthday on Ashura.
Whether he is celebrating it or not due to Ashura doesn't change the fact that IK has turned sixty today. Let's not lose the objectivity people!!
WE are not celebrating IK birthday today
we are not celebrating Ik birthday today people should understand it
how can we celeberate IK birthday today, express tribune and people on twitter should understand it.
This picture attached comes from last year's birthday. This year there are no celebrations in respect of the holy month of Muharram.
