In 2016, Nida invited two students who had invented their own Formula 1 racing car. The duo had joined the host in hopes to shed light on their project but were left dumbfounded with Nida's questions.
Pakistani media and social media is a gift that keeps on giving. Time and again, hilarious videos from across the border have gone viral and given people a good laugh.
Now, a video of a Pakistani news anchor is going viral and it left people aghast. Nida Yasir, host of the popular morning show Good Morning Pakistan, has become a top trend on Twitter after a clip from her show went viral.
In 2016, Nida invited two students who had invented their own Formula 1 racing car. The duo had joined the host in hopes to shed light on their project but was left dumbfounded by Nida's questions.

In the video, the anchor can be seen asking the guests about how race cars really work. The host goes on to inquire whether the Formula cars can seat more than a single person. One of the students said, "Actually, it is a Formula car. So only one person can sit inside." Nida then quipped, "Oh, so it's just a formula for now? Have you done an experiment on any car?"
The students were left baffled. However, without losing composure, one of them said, "No, it's a Formula car. We've made one. It's a race car." Nida then questioned, "So, does it drive as fast as a petrol-fuelled car?"
And thus, Twitter had a field day.

Nida Yasir should stick to mayun, mehndi, make-up bla bla so that she could continue hosting shows guilt free for not using her brain in decades.

A veteran host like Nida shouldn't need reminding that researching about your guests is imperative.
Not sure people will forgive her so soon for her oversight.
