He is dressed in a Pakistani shalwar kameez and is wearing a casket and is wearing peshwari Chappel. A sad attempt at being a sahib

infact the opposite of anything Sahib. William is friends with the ex PM Imran Khan who has single handedly put a shalwar kameez with a Koti n peshawari chappal on the map. And surely trying to keep himself at bay with wearing typical british clothing style (very popular in the sahib culture of sub continent) and also hinting towards a proud pathan.

What about we Indians wearing western clothes?does that make us sahib?,HE lives in India and perhaps used to loose.attire.
