Last time we checked, Momina Mustehsan and Danyal Zafar were at peace, performing the stunning record of Muntazir in #CokeStudio10 that we still hum to.
But now it seems like the tides have turned between Momina Mustehsan and Danyal Zafar
Scrolling my Twitter timeline, I stumbled upon a Twitter war between them in full swing. Thought that it would be just another random celebrity interaction, but my word, this goes a long way…
Let’s pick up on what is happening here, shall we?
An apparent argument between Momina and Danyal has taken place and it has taken a toll on Twitter. Tweets after tweets; all you see is Momina-Daniyal, Daniyal-Momina as you scroll down, while we are like, “WHAT IS GOING ON?”
It looks like Danyal has had enough of desi food
Had too much desi food this Eid – going to grill some burgers today. #DesiNoMore
— Danyal Zafar (@DanZafOfficial) September 10, 2017
But Momina says one can never have enough of it
@DanZafOfficial Nah dude, there is no such thing as ‘too much desi food’! Current mood: Seekh Kebab!? #DesiRocks
— Momina Mustehsan (@MominaMustehsan) September 10, 2017
Man, just look at that gorgeous grilled burger
Desi toh kabhi bhi – I don’t grill burgers everyday! #DesiNoMore pic.twitter.com/z7Dws7ixuX
— Danyal Zafar (@DanZafOfficial) September 10, 2017
But Momina brought something equally fascinating
@DanZafOfficial NO SCENE – Nothing can come close to some Seekh Kebabs. Desi forever! ?#DesiRocks pic.twitter.com/t8pbVNByo2

Team Non-desi, call the banners, Danyal Zafar is leading the command
Alright then, let the food wars begin! #DesiNoMore ????? pic.twitter.com/5ufah9nlq8

Considering the food, desi finishes a league apart in terms of tastes, ingredients, and variety. While non-desi has a different charm that we cannot ignore. It’s just like you cannot roll your eyes to Momina and like Danyal. So, how’s the debate coming along?
More celebrities have joined the argument…
Apparently, she’s #TeamMomina
@MominaMustehsan you my desi girl! Bring on that desi tarka! #DesiRocks

And here we have Natasha Zafar hailing for #TeamDanyal

All the more reason why we are eager to see how the debate comes out.
Meanwhile, what Pakistanis on Twitter are up to?
The #DesiNoMore vs #DesiRocks debate caught the attention of the Twitter fraternity in Pakistan. See how people joined the bandwagon:

People are taking sides here
BECAUSE SEEKH KEBAB, NOT ATTENTION! #DesiRocks https://t.co/cQE27LFNUt

You can clearly see they are divided
People in Pak are so scared to experiment with food, they don't want to get away from traditionally rooted culinary exp's! #DesiNoMore
— Aisha Randhawa (@HariMirchein) September 11, 2017
Holy Moly! Where did this come from? Puts up a strong case there, eh?
We all know #DesiRocks when even @zaynmalik's endorsing desi food ?? pic.twitter.com/XED3jrN52k

Meanwhile, someone had to ask…
How can us desis ever go on a diet with all these niharis, biryanis and parathay ??? #DesiNoMore
— ??? (@saraspare) September 10, 2017
No one seems to give up

How do we settle this debate?
Was telling my dad the same ;_;

THE MATTER ISN’T SETTLED HERE!
What shall be the consequence? Where will Momina stall? Where will Danyal settle? Will either of them spare anyone? Will there be a middle ground? What about the rest who joined the debate? How do we get all these answers? Pfft.
WITH THAT BEING SAID, DANYAL ZAFAR AND MOMINA MUSTEHSAN LEAVE US ALL ON A CLIFFHANGER…
We are more curious to know where they shall settle if they are going to at all. Let’s keep an eye on Twitter to find out if the matter is laid to rest soon enough.
