Former PPP senator Sehar Kamran — who became famous for her "wow grape" meme — has decided to sell it as a Non-Fungible Token (NFT) in the wake of catastrophic rain-induced floods in Pakistan.
Sehar, who is a former school principal, said that the share generated from the meme will be donated to the people affected by the floods.
The meme originated from a Pakistani school in Saudi Arabia and went viral back in 2020.
It received immense popularity after the video went viral in which the Kamran, who was a school principal then, was hearing pledges from her students during a celebration in the school.
Many students made pledges, to which, the principal replied with a "wow, great".
However, this was perceived as "wow, grape" by many netizens which later became a template for many memes on social media for a long time.
Foundation, which is a digital art marketplace, will auction the NFT on September 30.
The floods in the South Asian country have affected over 33 million people and killed above 1,100 people.
