ARY boss awards apartment to Olympic hero Arshad Nadeem

ISLAMABAD—In a remarkable gesture of appreciation, ARY Digital Network President and CEO Salman Iqbal has announced a luxurious apartment in ARY Laguna for Pakistan’s star javelin thrower, Arshad Nadeem, in honor of his gold medal win at the Paris Olympics 2024.

According to ARY News, Salman Iqbal congratulated Arshad Nadeem, expressing his pride in the athlete's extraordinary achievement. "Congratulations to Arshad Nadeem for winning the gold medal for Pakistan," said Iqbal. The CEO's gift of a luxury apartment in ARY Laguna, DHA City Karachi, highlights the importance of Nadeem's historic success.

Nadeem ended Pakistan’s 32-year Olympic medal drought with a remarkable throw of 92.97 meters in the javelin final, securing the country’s first-ever individual Olympic gold medal.

During a press conference in Paris, Nadeem shared his confidence leading up to the event, stating that he was in rhythm and fully believed in his ability to clinch the gold. He also expressed his hope to celebrate Pakistan’s Independence Day with this monumental achievement, acknowledging the unwavering support from the nation, the Pakistan Olympic Association, and his coach.

The ARY Laguna project, where Nadeem's apartment is located, is poised to redefine luxury real estate in Pakistan. It features a 20-acre man-made lagoon, developed with the expertise of the internationally renowned company Crystal Lagoons.
