In a refreshing feature on young digital influencers, Arab News has turned the spotlight on Talha Ahmed, a 17-year-old comedy content creator from Pakistan who is winning hearts across the world with his relatable humor and sharp wit.
From Karachi to the Arab News: A Rising Star
Talha Ahmed, a Karachi-based teen, has rapidly gained fame for his hilarious skits, parodies, and social commentary on platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. What started as a hobby during the pandemic has now turned into a full-fledged career, with millions of followers eagerly awaiting his next upload.
Arab News, a leading English-language daily in the Middle East, highlighted Talha’s unique ability to blend Pakistani cultural humor with universally appealing comedy, making him a hit not just at home but also in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and beyond.
Why Talha Stands Out
Unlike many young creators who rely on trends, Talha’s content stands out for its originality and observational comedy. Whether he’s poking fun at school life, family dynamics, or social media absurdities, his delivery and timing have drawn comparisons to veteran comedians.
In his interview with Arab News, Talha shared:
“I never expected this kind of love from audiences. Comedy has no language barrier, and I’m grateful my content resonates with people across cultures.”
Breaking Stereotypes & Bridging Cultures
Talha’s rise is also significant in breaking stereotypes about Pakistani content creators. While many associate Pakistani social media with music or drama, Talha proves that comedy can be a powerful tool for cross-cultural connection.
His sketches often feature lighthearted takes on everyday struggles—making him relatable to teens and young adults worldwide.
What’s Next for the Young Comedian?
With growing recognition from international media like Arab News, Talha is now exploring collaborations with GCC-based creators and even hints at potential projects in stand-up comedy and short films
