Is ‘50 Core’ a Pakistani Rip-off of Money Heist?

The Pakistani Cinema is gradually coming into action after the long break of the pandemic as cinemas are going to open countrywide. Recently we came across the teaser of the upcoming movie ‘Quaid-e-Azam Zindabad’ and people started to compare it to ‘Singham’ and ‘Dabang’ from Bollywood. However, I believe that we shouldn’t criticize and compare everything and instead encourage our artists to showcase their talents.

It is gratifying to see that the Pakistani movie directors and filmmakers are coming out of the box to make such action films and all they need is appreciation. ’50 Crore’ is also an upcoming movie starring Faisal Qureshi, Aijaz Aslam, Saboor Aly, Zhalay Sarhadi, Faryal Mehmood, Anoushey Abbasi, Noman Habib, Mehmood Aslam, Asad Siddiqui, Naveed Raza, and Omer Shehzad. The movie is about a gang of screwballs who are planning for a big robbery. But wait, we have already seen something like this, haven’t we?

Yes, you got it right! The movie 50 crore looks like the Lollywood version of the Netflix Series ‘Money Heist’. The movie’s teaser shows that all the characters are named after various locations in Pakistan such as Dadu, Mirurkhas, Rahim Yar Khan, Chaman, and others; just like it was done in Money Heist. From the pictures and teaser, it is evident that there are similarities between the two movies, but what we know is that it is going to be a big action-packed film.

Now come to the response from social media, which is hilarious as ever. The public reaction was understood for something like this and now that everyone knows what the movie seems to be is a rip-off of the Spanish series, the responses are quiet humorous. Following are some of the best tweets and comments we have seen on the social media so far:

While some of the peeps were making fun of the movie, there were some who showed support too:

Zara Noor Abbas’ Remarks About Asad Siddiqui Leave Fans Wondering If All Is Well

Pakistani showbiz couple Zara Noor Abbas and Asad Siddiqui have long been admired for their chemistry, talent, and strong presence in the entertainment industry. The duo tied the knot in 2017 and quickly became one of the most talked-about celebrity couples in Pakistan both actors had already built impressive careers before their marriage, and over the years they have continued to win hearts with their work on television.

Currently, Zara Noor Abbas is receiving appreciation for her performance in the drama Ek Jhooti Kahani, while Asad Siddiqui has recently stepped into the world of production in addition to acting. The couple also entered a beautiful new phase of life when they welcomed their daughter, Noor e Jahan, in March 2024. Their little one is set to celebrate her second birthday this March, making the family moments even more special for the couple.

Recently, Zara and Asad appeared on a Ramzan transmission hosted by Javeria Saud. During the light-hearted conversation, the couple was asked an interesting question about surprises in their relationship.

When asked who gives more surprises, Zara responded with a witty remark, asking whether the question referred to pleasant surprises or unpleasant ones. Her response made the audience laugh, but she went on to explain that the couple no longer focuses on surprising each other. Instead, they prefer discussing their needs openly and making decisions together.

Asad Siddiqui quickly reminded his wife that he had recently surprised her with a car. Zara acknowledged the gesture but jokingly pointed out that it was a one-time surprise. The moment turned playful yet honest as she continued sharing small details about their daily life.

During the conversation, Zara Noor Abbas also teased her husband about spending a lot of time playing padel with his friends. According to her, Asad often goes out with friends and cousins to play the sport instead of staying home.

Interestingly, Zara revealed that she has now become quite fond of the game herself and enjoys playing it too. However, she jokingly complained that Asad still prefers hanging out with his friends more often.

In response, Asad Siddiqui defended himself by saying that he does try to balance his time between work, friends, and family. He emphasized that he makes an effort to spend quality time with both Zara and their daughter. But Zara humorously disagreed with his claim, which added a playful yet slightly awkward tone to the conversation.

After the interview aired, clips from the show quickly circulated on social media, sparking mixed reactions from fans. Some viewers felt that the couple appeared slightly uncomfortable during the conversation and began speculating about their relationship.

A few comments suggested that Zara seemed unhappy, with one user writing that she appeared to be in a “depressed marriage.” Another viewer commented that something about the interaction felt off and questioned whether the couple was truly happy together.

However, not everyone shared the same opinion. Several fans came to the couple’s defense, saying that their conversation simply reflected the realities of married life. According to these supporters, long-term relationships often include small disagreements, teasing, and honest discussions.

Some viewers even appreciated the couple’s candidness, saying it made them appear more relatable compared to the overly perfect image that celebrities sometimes portray online.

Alongside the debate about the couple’s relationship, a few viewers also criticized the host, Javeria Saud. Some felt that the questions asked during the Ramzan show were too personal and could potentially create unnecessary controversy.

Ramzan transmissions are usually known for their family-friendly atmosphere, and some fans believed that discussions about marital disagreements might not be suitable for such shows.

Despite the online chatter, many fans believe that Zara Noor Abbas and Asad Siddiqui simply showcased the realistic side of marriage. Their conversation reflected everyday situations couples experience -balancing work, personal interests, friendships, and family time.
