When it comes to viral fame, it honestly just takes one picture or one video to change someone's life. For better or worse, depends on the situation.

With eyes as blue as the ocean, the famous chaiwala from Pakistan became one of the most famous faces at one point of time with just one picture. You remember the picture, the picture that started it all.

The internet truly went crazy four years ago over this good looking guy pouring chai, what a time to be alive. And, it was honestly great to see Arshad Khan actually use his sudden popularity to his full advantage.

Soon after the picture went viral, there was news of him getting a modeling contract and it was the few times when social media was a great place that changed someone's life for the better.

But, that was four years ago, and looks like our handsome chaiwala has been busy building a business while giving a shoutout to what started it all.

Now, he's the owner of a cafe in Islamabad and any guess on the name? Café Chaiwala Roof Top, of course!

In an interview about the cafe, he said, "Many people asked me to name my café as Arshad Khan and told me to change the current name. But I refused because ‘Chaiwala’ is my identity."

Never forget your roots.

The happiest thing I've seen all day. I remember all the mixed reactions from people when he was first discovered. People like Arshad are often laughed about and forgotten, its refreshing to see this boy achieve everything in life while remaining true to himself. So proud🥺 https://t.co/pv9mY37f1P
