The extravagant display received mixed reactions online. While some found the spectacle amusing, others criticized it. One commenter wrote, “And this is why I stopped living in Dubai…,” hinting at disillusionment with the city’s excessive lifestyle. Another remarked, “Maybe you should consider helping those who don’t have enough in life and teach your children the correct values of life?”
Other comments ranged from playful to critical, with users asking, “No other games for children?” and joking, “Don’t be surprised if these kids paint their dad’s car next time.”
This event follows another instance of Dubai’s opulent living. A 26-year-old Dubai-based housewife, Soudi Al Nadak, recently shared a video of her husband gifting her a private island, further showcasing the city’s extravagant displays of wealth.
