Turkish star Engin Altan, famous for his role as Ertugrul, landed in Pakistan on Thursday and received a grand welcome.
What Were The Affairs And Occurrences That Happened Upon His Visit?
Soon after he landed, the Pakistani internet went into a frenzy for their love of Engin, who plays the lead role of Ertugrul in the well-known Turkish Series “Dirilis- Ertugrul.”
The hero took to Instagram and thanked his fans and the country for the warm welcome by posting a story with the caption, “Thank You For Warm Welcome To Pakistan.”
Engin landed on Thursday and received a warm welcome on his first visit to the country after Prime Minister Imran Khan suggested the nation to watch the series and officially aired the Urdu dub on PTV Home so that quality content could be broadcasted to the Pakistani households whose drama industry has been under severe criticism for low-effort, quality deprived dramas.
A private business company invited Engin Altan. Social media was infiltrated with pictures and videos of the hero receiving love and a warm welcome wherever he would go by the public and the officials.
Finally #ErtugrulGazi came to Pakistan. Thanks for everything. I hope you will fully Enjoy. Long live Pakistan and Turkey.
