<p>Hafeez has always been known for his innovative news reporting. His cattle interview a few years back is still used as meme material in the subcontinent and now the anchor seems to have moved to grander things.&nbsp;</p>


Pakistani anchor Amin Hafeez is in news again. The man who had earlier interviewed cattle has once again discovered a unique way to report news. A video posted on Twitter shows Hafeez dressed like an emperor, brandishing a sword while reporting from the Lahore Fort, before signing off.
