On the sidelines of ongoing Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit, a video is doing rounds of Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif struggling with the earphone as he sits across Russian President Vladmir Putin for a meeting.

Soon after the video circulated, it divided netizens with some calling it Sharif's 'awkward not embarassing moment.' A user remarked it as a generational gap adding that Pakistan PM's league of individuals struggle with technology.

Another user questioned why the premiers of different nations could not speak in a common language.

Visibly consicous Sharif in the video is seen fixing the headphones which kept falling from behind his ear. After failed attempts, he asks, " Can somebody help me?"

Russian President Vladimir Putin on the other hand is smilingly waiting for the device to be fixed before the two leaders began their discussion.

The SCO is holding its first in-person summit in Samarkand in Uzbekistan after two years. The summit will also see the participation of Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Uzbekistan's historic city of Samarkand on Thursday to attend the SCO summit, which is set to deliberate on regional security challenges, boosting trade and energy supplies among other issues.
