I suspect you'll find ngrok to be the easiest solution.

Modifying your local host file will only affect that single PC, you would need to also modify the host file on your mobile (which may not be possible) and specify the external IP of your PC rather than 127.0.0.1 for what you've described to work.

Change <VirtualHost yasir.com:80> back to <VirtualHost *:80> first though and specify your ngrok domain as a ServerAlias.
