Adeel’s Affair With Natasha Makes Headlines
Perhaps the most riveting plot of the film Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum is Adeel’s extramarital affair with Rubab’s best friend, Natasha. This betrayal has elicited a massive response from the fans, and people are interested in how Rubab will react once the truth surfaces. In a recent episode, there is a particular scene where viewership tried to surpass expectations, not only because of the drama it presents in exploring the story.
During part of the episode, Adeel, Natasha, and her husband go to an art gallery. Just like every other dramatic scene that may depict ordinary life settings, I have realized this scene has escalated into an off-camera controversy, gradually gaining discursive prominence.
The Stolen Artwork Controversy
It has been revealed that the painting shown in the gallery scene of Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum is an appropriated work of art from the famous one by the renowned artist, Seffy Soomro. These paintings were done by Seffy Soomro who is an artistic and embryonic painter, these paintings were exhibited in Frere Hall Karachi as a thesis. But soon after the completion of the exhibition, he was told the shocking news of the theft of his paintings.
Soomro was very sad to lose his work since the piece had personal and creative importance to him. The artist had lost hope of ever recovering the pieces that had been stolen from him. Still, to his utter dismay, he was recently appalled to know that his paintings were making an appearance in Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum without his knowledge. The stolen artworks are depicted in the gallery scene whereby Soomro is shocked and feels angry about the incident.
How did the stolen art get to be featured in Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum?
The question now arises: how did these stolen pieces of art end up in a popular drama like Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum? Soomro also said that at the time of the theft, he was scammed and for this reason, he had convinced himself that his paintings were stolen and gone for good. As for how the production team of the show came across those paintings, it is unknown, but there is no doubt that they were not aware of the theft, as they only required artwork for the shots depicting the gallery.
Seffy Soomro is awaiting an apology and addressing people to seek justice for the improper utilization of his work. The artist has voiced his opinion and feelings of disappointment and frustration over the situation, and fans of the drama have also begun chiming in to share their opinions. Some are demanding the production team to answer for their involvement and take the blame for using scam artwork.
What’s Next For Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum?
Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum can claim to be the current number one drama but the scandal of the stolen artwork introduced a drama element into the show not to mention the real-life drama surrounding the situation. Whether the show’s success will be affected by this remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: this is a story that is far from over.
