Johnny Lever said people like Imran Khan are very rare in today’s world. He especially appreciated Khan’s humanitarian work, including building the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Hospital for poor cancer patients in memory of his mother.
“Imran Khan Zindabad, he is a great leader who thinks of the people. We need leaders like him,” Lever reportedly said. He also remembered Imran Khan as one of his favourite cricketers and noted that many Indians admire him for his achievements both on and off the field.
Johnny Lever, known for his funny roles in hundreds of Bollywood films, has a massive fan following in Pakistan as well. His unexpected words of support have created a buzz online. Many Pakistanis shared the video with positive comments, saying it shows love and respect can cross borders.
The clip has been widely circulated on Instagram, Facebook, and other platforms in the last few days. While some see it as a simple expression of admiration for Khan’s character and social work, others are surprised to hear such open praise from a big Indian star.
This moment highlights how Imran Khan continues to receive attention and respect even outside Pakistan. Johnny Lever’s statement has once again reminded people of the strong emotional connection many fans still feel with the former cricketer-turned-politician.
