Shaan Shahid and Hamza Ali Abbasi have found the perfect solution to tackle the severe financial crisis in the South Asian country.

The Waar actor’s tweet got a hashtag ‘Buy back Pakistani rupees’ trending on Twitter.
“Appeal to all my fellow Pakistanis .. #buybackpakRs no matter how little or how big one can afford but let’s put in our share,” he wrote.

“Our currency, our pride,” he then tweeted. “We must defend it from economic attacks that are challenging our freedom and our right to exist. In this war, we are all economic soldiers. We must defend our rupee.”
Hamza followed him and said:
“I don’t have a dollar account but my mother and sister have one. I am proud to announce that today they converted all the dollars into PKR,” He further said, “So I request all of you to DITCH THE DOLLAR and buy Pakistani rupee as soon as possible and play your part in strengthening our currency!”

#buybackpakRs but how? I don’t have any dollars, or euros or any other currency worth showing off. When I went to the money changer and asked how many rupees for Pak rupees, he had his guard escort me out. He was most polite though.
