After a shortage in the staple iftar drink Rooh Afza in India, the beverage producer in Pakistan has offered to fill the gap. According to a story published in Indian publication The Print, the sherbet has been off the market in India for last four to five months.

Officially, India’s Hamdard Laboratories says that a lack of raw material is behind the shortfall. The report; however, citing sources, claimed that a dispute among the owners was the reason for the shortage.

Pakistan to the rescue

“We can supply RoohAfza and RoohAfzaGO to India during this Ramzan. We can easily send trucks through Wahga (sic) border if permitted by Indian Government,” tweeted Usama Qureshi, MD and CEO of Pakistani Hamdard.
