A video of a political analyst falling from his chair during a live panel discussion on a Pakistani television channel has gone viral.
Analyst Salman Ghani was speaking during a debate show on Pakistani television channel Dunya News hosted by anchor Syeda Ayesha Naz with four other guest panellists.
The panel members in the show were having a heated discussion on a newly released survey by a research institution about the dissatisfaction the Pakistani population has with the Imran Khan-led government.
In the video that is circulating online, Ghani is seen giving his opinion and commenting on the rise in utility prices the Pakistani population has seen during Khan’s leadership when his chair seems to break and he falls down.
The camera immediately changes to show Naz, who looks shocked and quickly calls for an advertisement break.
Social media users shared the video multiple times, and many were concerned for Ghani's safety.
Tweep @_AnumHanif wrote: “Hope Salman Ghani is fine. It was a bad fall…”
While some, especially Khan’s supporters made quirky remarks on the incident.
User @jsigns7 wrote: “Anchor’s reaction (No reaction neutral face) is priceless. Everyone would want to know what happened next. I am eager to find out if @ImranKhanPTI had a secret button to manipulate that chair like Shakal in the movie #Shaan”
Commenting on the video, some also alleged that Khan’s wife, Bushra Bibi had something to do with it, referencing a poster that recently circulated online.
Tweep @bhishmavajra posted: “Bushra Bibi's black magic.”
