Bekaar Films is Pakistan's answer to AIB and they'll leave you in splits

There have been several others trying to see humour in everyday situations (It's Halloween all over the world; in Pakistan its just another scary day).

There's humour on the road too - mostly on Pakistani trucks and rickshaws, which is miles ahead of our boring and overused Indian "buri nazar wale tera moonh kala".

Sample this:

Parhoge likhoge banoge vakeel

Jo jaahil rahe tou shayad vazeer

.....

Jinay apni maa no satiay

Onay sari umar riksha he chalaiy

Bus-on main, coach-on main, wagon-on main

Bay hisoon ko hamsafar sath paiay

Jin ko mardaangi ka daawa tha

Un ko bhi ladies seat per paaiy

.....

Driver ki zindagi ajab khel hai

Maut se bache to central jail hai

Bekaar Films

The current favourites in Pakistan, with a massive following of almost a million, are known as Bekaar Films or Bekaar Vines. They make short videos showcasing the funny in everyday situations.

"Having a bad day? Want a good laugh? Well, Bekaar Films is here to put a smile on your face and make you laugh. Watch our videos and enjoy! It's free!" reads the note on Bekaar Films Facebook page.

Bekaar Films has a spoof on Taher Shah. Yes, the man who sang Angel. In their video Punishment: Then vs Now, a college student has flunked his exam and his mother ties him up to a chair and makes him listen to Taher Shah on repeat.

There are videos about how a sister reacts when she catches her brother speaking to a girl - she teases the brother, calls the girl "bhabhi" and wants to know if she is pretty. On the other hand, when the brother catches his sister speaking to a classmate he sends over goons to beat him up.

There are hilarious videos about how guys behave when they spot a girl, how 'Pindi boys behave when they go to a mall, and how everyone turns patriotic on August 14 while the rest of the year they are cursing Pakistan and contemplating fleeing it.

There's another group called "The Idiotz" that is trying to outdo Bekaar Films but they have a long way to go.

A personal favourite by them is the one where Mohammed Ali Jinnah visits Pakistan on Independence Day and is shocked to see what has become of his dear country.

He gets told that he should not underestimate his value in today's times thanks to his face on the rupee note that can help dodge a policeman, get a job, and bribe officials.
