Make-A-Wish Foundation Pakistan founder Ishtiaq Baig said that Altan Duzyatan (Ertugrul) is so popular in Pakistan that “even if he contests election here, he will honestly win and become a member of the parliament.”
Sidra said she was happy on fulfilling her wish while Sohail said he liked the Turkish drama because the series narrated Islam’s history.
