However, as Peshawar Zalmi fans had anticipated Turkish actress Esra Bilgiç to be revealed as the new brand ambassador, the move was surprising. Over the past few weeks, Esra and Peshawar Zalmi owner, Javed Afridi, have been teasing the fans on social media, with both of them posting the same cryptic Twitter and Instagram posts.
Zalmi’s owner Javed Afridi on Friday confirmed that the popular Turkish actress Esra Bilgic who gained fame for her impressive characterization of Halime Sultan in historical drama series Dirilis: Ertugrul, has joined his PSL franchise as a brand ambassador.
Esra Bilgiç is part of the Peshawar Zalmi ‘kingdom’
Peshawar Zalmi on Saturday released its official anthem Kingdom, featuring its brand ambassadors Mahira Khan and Turkish star Esra Bilgic aka Halime Sultan.
Apart from Mahira Khan and Esra Bilgic, Peshawar Zalmi also made Hania Amir and Ali Rehman their brand ambassadors and they were also featured in the coolest anthem of PSL.
The Kingdom anthem, sung by Abdullah Siddiqui that premiered on Saturday morning has won the hearts of fans shortly after it was released on YouTube.
