Kareena Kapoor at a Karachi rave? Pakistani DJ’s "awkward" animation spooks viewers and has others crying with laughter

A video featuring a poorly animated avatar of Bollywood star Kareena Kapoor Khan at a rave party in Pakistan has taken the internet by storm, and not for the reasons one might expect. The amusing (and somewhat awkward) clip has caused a stir, provoking both laughter and outrage among fans.

The video was shared by DJ Hamza Haris, who calls himself a “Quintessential Karachi Boi” on his social media bio. It shows an animated version of Kareena dancing at a rave party, with loud beats blasting in the background. The avatar, dressed in what looks like a formal outfit with her hair pulled into a tight ponytail, moves to the music in a way that has left viewers scratching their heads.



In his Instagram post, Hamza explained what inspired the unusual animation. "Been working on this track for a minute, and I finally wrapped it up just in time for the show. I knew if I was gonna play it, it had to have a visual. The track was inspired while I was watching Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham," he wrote. "I sampled that iconic moment when Pooh says, well, you know the line. So I thought, why not have Kareena Kapoor dancing? It’s iconic. It’s chaotic. And honestly, no one’s done that at a rave before."

He added, “We pulled it off, and it was a hit. The crowd went wild. Just hoping Karan Johar and Kareena Kapoor Khan see this someday and get how funny, unexpected, and hype it was.”

The video kicks off with a playful text insert that reads, “POV: You’re at a rave in Karachi, Pakistan and Kareena Kapoor starts dancing in front of you.” What follows is the avatar dancing awkwardly, looking less like a Bollywood diva and more like someone who might have stepped out of a corporate meeting.

Naturally, the video didn’t go unnoticed, but the reactions were a mixed bag. Some viewers found the animation laughable. One person commented, "This animation is sooooo bad, and why is she looking like she’s going to work?" Another simply said, “Stop working on the track and animation both.”

Not everyone was amused, though. One viewer wrote, "Hell nah, this is NOT Kareena Kapoor." Another couldn’t believe their eyes: “What? How? Is this for real? No ways. Hahahaha.” There were also plenty of laughing out loud emoticons, as people couldn’t help but enjoy the chaos of the whole situation.
