These celebs went on a social media cleanse and here's what happened

In an increasingly cluttered landscape of communication, Innovative Biscuits has come up with a campaign asking people to unplug themselves from the internet.

With help from some of our favourite celebs, the brand is testing out how good it is an idea to free people from all digital drama with a quick challenge.

What's the challenge?

Named ‘iDisconnect’, the campaign is urging people to take a break and truly disconnect from the chaos of their digital lives.

Taking cue from one of Innovative Biscuits’ most celebrated products, Innovative Digestive, the idea behind this campaign intends to connect us back to our physical environment.

What's happening?

Celebs like Ahmed Ali Butt, Ahsan Khan, Ushna Shah, Hina Altaf, Sophiya Anjam and Munib Nawaz were invited to take up the iDisconnect Challenge and spend a day together to truly disconnect from technology and their busy lives.

Each of them were asked to surrender their phones and take part in various physical activities that included rounds of dumb charades, horse riding, tug of war etc.

Here's a look at it all:
