The pashtuns who show themselves as big tops are a cock tail of totally urelated people who speak same pashto language. The pashto language and culture belonged to Hepthalites who were collection of proto-pashto speakers and turkic speakers. The real pashtuns are Abdals (hephtals) or abdali (modern durranis) and Ghilzai or Ghaljay (Khalaj/Khilji) , they were both hephtalite cousin tribes but speaking different languages with Abdals (pashto speaking hephtalites ) and Khalaj (turkic speaking hephtalites). The Abdals (Hephtals) conqured the ancient Pactyans/Pakhtas (modern karlani pashtuns) who lived in paktia, paktika, khyber, kurram and waziristan. Turkic speaking Ghilzais Khalaj hephtalites came down and also assimilated with their bretren Abdals who had tamed karlani pakhta people. The pashtus were called "Abdal" by Nuristani/Dardic people because these people knew very well that original pashtuns were only Hephtalite abdals.
Many sindhi lohana nomadic mercahnts were also absorbed within nomadic Ghilazai/Ghaljay afghans over the centuries and are now called pashtun lohani tribes which include Marwats and Niazi. Pashtuns on pakistani side are mostly mochi, nai, teli etc. who speak pashto. The only real pashtuns in pakistan are Karlani pashtuns and Sarbani Yusufzais in KPK and Tareen and Kakar in Balochistan.
