To Paris, from Pakistan... video gets 3.5 million views on Facebook
The Pakistani director behind a video response to the Paris attacks that has received millions of views is "humbled" by the response, he told AFP.
'To Paris from Pakista'" featured five young Pakistani comedians vowing solidarity with France and refusing as Muslims to apologise for the actions of "a few deranged individuals who somehow claim to be like us".
It had been viewed more than 3.5 million times on Facebook by Friday morning.
"It is absolutely humbling to get messages from people in Europe who tell us that their views changed after watching the video since they had never been introduced to a Muslim or Pakistani before," Syed Muzamil Hasan Zaidi, the 25-year-old director of the LolzStudios Team video, told AFP late Thursday.
"We really feel great about getting our message across so many people in the world."
Zaidi said the video was the work of 10 digital artist friends who studied computer science together.
