Ibrahim Ali Khan’s new ad

In the ad, Ibrahim shows off a new sneaker collection that he compares to a cocktail, detailing how it was made with ‘two shots of swagger’, and ‘splash of wild’ and some ‘rebellion’. He ends the ad by saying, “Crafted to raise hell, not glasses.” He captioned the video, “Footwear that hits harder than any pour. #StayWrogn #Sneakers.”

In September, Ibrahim had previously done an ad for the same brand, surprising many by dubbing his own voice. In that ad, he seemingly addressed his impediment and said, “Some people are born gifted, and some, born imperfect. As for me, I was born imperfect. And that’s okay, man. Perfection is just overrated, yaar.”
