A Celebration That Took Social Media by Storm
A lavish birthday celebration for an 11-year-old girl has gone viral, with TikTok videos showing the extravagant surprise racking millions of views.
The videos feature scenes from a grand party thrown by a Malaysian entrepreneur, Farhana Zahra, for her daughter, Yaya.
Viewers were stunned to see the little girl being gifted an Apple computer, a Rolex watch, and a Toyota Vellfire, all part of a carefully planned surprise.
According to the video, Farhana deliberately acted as if she forgot her daughter’s birthday to make the moment even more special.
In the video, she wrote:
“I pretended to forget her birthday because I had planned all of this. That’s why she (Yaya) said, ‘I thought mama forgot my birthday.’”
“I Didn’t Know What Else to Give”
Farhana revealed that she has fulfilled nearly all of her daughter’s wishes daily, which made it difficult to come up with a meaningful gift when her birthday arrived.
“I’ve fulfilled nearly all of Yaya’s wishes every day. So when it came to her birthday, I didn’t know what else to give,” she wrote.
She then added: Forgive mama… this is all mama could afford for my daughter. I only spent RM1 million (approx. S$303,082.88) on this birthday.”
The birthday celebration featured a pink-themed decor setup, with guests dressed in black in line with the chosen colour scheme.
She Didn’t Forget the People Who Helped Along the Way
In a separate video, Farhana was also seen gifting a luxury car to their former driver.
The unexpected gesture received praise online, with many applauding her appreciation for those who had been part of the family’s early years.
A Mother’s Wish for Her Daughter’s Future
While the celebration turned heads for its extravagance, Farhana said that her daughter’s happiness meant more than anything else.
In a heartfelt birthday message, she expressed her love and hopes for Yaya’s future, saying she’s proud of how much her little girl has grown.
Farhana also wished that Yaya’s dream of becoming a successful businesswoman would one day come true.
Public Reactions Mixed
The celebration sparked mixed responses on social media. While some praised Farhana for being able to give her daughter such an extraordinary birthday, others questioned the need for such extravagance.
One commenter remarked, “Not to be rude, but isn’t that showing off?” concerned over whether such luxury was necessary for an 11-year-old.
Another pointed out that while Farhana might be a successful entrepreneur, the words “RM1 million only” didn’t sit well with everyone.
“I know you’re a successful founder, but don’t say ‘only RM1 million,’ that may be little to you, but it’s a lot to others,” one commenter wrote.
Despite the differing views, Farhana appeared more focused on her daughter’s happiness, hoping the celebration would leave lasting memories and inspire Yaya’s future.
