Pakistani actress and model Saheefa Jabbar Khattak hilariously tapped into the Gen Z culture wave after admitting she could not keep up with the internet’s latest hand sign trends.
Taking to her Instagram handle, the actress shared a candid story in which she playfully tried decoding viral Gen Z gestures.
Mimicking the trending “clock it” hand sign, Saheefa amusingly asked, “Can anyone tell me what this means?” before jokingly adding that she had only just managed to learn the famous Korean finger-heart gesture and was now confused by this new trend.
While making the iconic Korean “finger heart” sign, she remarked in Urdu, “Ye mushkil se seekha tha, ab ye naya wala kya hai?” giving the moment a humorous and highly relatable touch.
The now-viral ‘clock it’ gesture has become a signature Gen Z expression online. It is commonly used to acknowledge a sharp observation, subtly call something out, or signal agreement with a clever point often paired with a playful finger tap gesture.
Meanwhile, the Korean finger-heart sign, created by crossing the thumb and index finger to form a tiny heart, symbolizes love, affection, and appreciation. Popularised globally by K-pop idols during the 2010s, the gesture later evolved into the widely recognised emoji culture. (This information has been derived from Wikipedia)
Known for her outspoken personality and unapologetic social media presence, Saheefa Jabbar Khattak often finds herself at the centre of online debates. The actress has repeatedly faced criticism for challenging conventional beauty standards and expressing herself freely on digital platforms.
Recently, she drew backlash over her bold mini skirt appearance, while earlier her ultra-short pixie haircut also became a major topic of discussion online. Despite the criticism, Saheefa continues to maintain her unfiltered and fearless online persona, something that keeps her consistently in the spotlight.
