"Will you make Biryani and Karahi?"
Pakistani BTS fans were caught off guard when Kim Taehyung, best known by his stage name V, responded to an important question.
A follower asked him to visit Pakistan during an online conversation session.
V responded with a very important question about Pakistani cuisine and local dishes.
He asked if there would be biryani and karahi available during the visit, asking:
“Will you make Biryani and Karahi?”
The response demonstrated his overall awareness and interest in Pakistani culinary traditions.
ARMYs, as the group’s fans call themselves, couldn’t believe what they were reading.
Their idol not only knew about their favourite foods from Pakistan, but he also wanted to try them.
The excitement among Pakistani fans was immediately evident across social media platforms.
Of course, many followers immediately set out to do something very Pakistani.
They decided to cook up some biryani and karahi for the occasion.
Another very Pakistani thing was how ARMYs used V’s statement quickly.
They used it to assert that biryani and karahi belonged to Pakistan alone.
Biryani and karahi are indeed iconic dishes associated with Pakistani cuisine.
However, the regional origins of these dishes involve complex historical factors.
Still, Pakistani fans enthusiastically claimed them as exclusively their own national cuisines.
V’s clear interest in trying Pakistani dishes motivated this passionate assertion online.
As for the singer, his motivations became quite clear upon closer examination.
Netizens looked at some of his other comments from the same day.
He was promising to visit Türkiye if offered kebabs by followers.
V was also asking a Bangladeshi fan what’s good in their country.
Fans concluded that he was simply hungry and interested in trying different cuisines.
Still, Pakistani fans decided to take his biryani and karahi comment seriously.
They began making elaborate plans to welcome him with authentic local cuisine.
Pakistani food is indeed renowned for its rich flavours and complex spice combinations.
Biryani is a fragrant rice dish cooked with meat and aromatic spices.
Karahi is a stir-fried dish typically made with meat, tomatoes and peppers.
The country’s delicious food is one of its greatest cultural attractions overall.
Pakistanis are also known worldwide for their exceptional hospitality toward visiting guests.
Sharing meals is how people in Pakistan connect with one another.
