Few Pakistani dramas in recent years have managed to create the kind of international frenzy that Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum did. With its memorable characters, emotional storytelling, and standout performances, the drama became a phenomenon not only in Pakistan but across borders, particularly among audiences in India.
Featuring acclaimed actors Fahad Mustafa as Mustafa, Hania Aamir as Sharjeena, Emmad Irfani as Adeel, and Naeema Butt as Rubab, the series quickly became one of the most talked-about television productions of the year. Its popularity gave rise to countless discussions online, with viewers praising its relatable characters and emotionally charged moments.
Now, months after the drama concluded, it has once again found itself at the center of social media conversation—this time because of an Indian television production that many viewers believe bears a striking resemblance to the hit Pakistani series.
The Indian show, titled Qubool Hai, stars real-life celebrity couple Mohit Sehgal and Sanaya Irani. The project marks the couple’s return to the screen together, a development that initially generated excitement among their fans. However, discussions soon shifted from the stars themselves to scenes that viewers claimed looked remarkably familiar.
Social media users began sharing clips from both dramas, pointing out similarities between certain character interactions and story moments. One sequence in particular attracted attention because of its resemblance to a memorable scene from Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum. In the original drama, Sharjeena prepares food for the household, only to find herself in an uncomfortable situation when Rubab attempts to tip her, creating tension and emotional conflict.
According to viewers, a comparable scene appears in Qubool Hai, leading many fans to accuse the Indian production of borrowing heavily from the Pakistani drama’s storytelling style and character dynamics.
