A video that has now gone viral shows former Pakistan president and military dictator Pervez Musharraf dancing with an unknown woman in a nightclub to the peppy beats of the popular Bollywood song ‘Dilli wali girlfriend’ has created quite a stir on social media.
Though there is no information of when and where the video was shot, but has been shared thousands of times after senior Pakistani journalist Hamid Mir, one of the most popular television talk-show hosts in Pakistan, posted it on Twitter.
Mir posted the clip with the caption: “Do you know who is this man dancing in a night club and where is his pain these days?”
The video clip has been receiving mixed responses of outrage and humour.
On January 13, Musharraf had filed a petition in an anti-terrorism court in Islamabad seeking "foolproof security" in order to be able to return to Pakistan and appear in court in the judges detention case.
In September 2016, Hamid Mir had tweeted another video showing Musharraf dancing with his wife Sehba Musharraf at a party.
