Internet is on a roll with popular drama serial
Pakistani drama serial Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum has the internet in a clutch. With anticipation for new content building every week, enthusiasts take to social media to find some release in expressing their thoughts on the episodes. That, of course, clears the way for many hilarious memes to emerge. Here’s a glimpse of the web’s response to the hit show.
Ridden with sorrow over the protagonists’ financial condition, an Indian fan on Instagram offered, “Mustafa bhai, my flat in Delhi stays empty. You and Sharjeena should come over. We won’t even charge rent, just show us four episodes instead of the weekly two.” This caught the attention of star Fahad Mustafa, who reacted with textual laughter. “Why not?” Fahad indulged.
TV actor Rabya Kulsoom chimed into the general discourse by sharing her honest piece of advice on Instagram. “I think Mustafa should try getting into acting, hosting, or maybe even modelling. He might be able to score a commercial or two. Can make a good income,” she said, cheekily referring to the actor who has aced all mentioned opportunities.
News anchor Rabia Anum also took to Instagram Stories to share a screencap of the heroine standing in the street with her phone pressed to her ear. Rabia wrote, “At this specific scene, if you even once thought that Sharjeena’s phone might get snatched, then congratulations, you are a true Karachiite!”
The flavours of hilarity did not isolate X. A fan shared a behind-the-scenes video clip, in which Fahad is playfully scolding co-actor Hania Aamir, saying, “No way she remembers the scene! She has no clue what she’s meant to do here!” The user reacted, “Fahad-Hania have had more arguments than Mustafa-Sharjeena.”
“This is the black cat that crossed paths with Sharjeena and Mustafa’s lives,” said another user, who spotted a black cat creeping into the frame during an episode. Given the series of bad luck plaguing the couple’s married life, this doesn’t seem far from the truth.
“Me watching Mustafa and Sharjeena romancing,” another fan wrote, captioning their words to a clip of a character flinching and gasping in shock before shutting their laptop. However, this fan might be alone in their modesty because others had starkly differing views.
“Whoever in the editing team cut [out the scene of] Mustafa picking Sharjeena up plus last episode’s forehead kiss, I hope your pillow is always warm, you outgrow all your favourite outfits, any and all of your orders get cancelled, and you lose interest in your favourite everything,” a fan hilariously seethed, sharing a picture of a distressed Mustafa as a reaction image.
Referring to a class subset and the female protagonist’s unique eating habits, a user posted a video clip from the show and joked, “A book on how to flirt with your husband in any given situation, written by Sharjeena – an ex-burger girl.” In the clip, Sharjeena kept trying to dismiss Mustafa’s light frustrations by calling him “cute” and her “hero”.
In recent developments, Sharjeena has delivered some good news to the audience that shook up the narrative. One fan on X celebrated the occasion with a hysterical announcement: “Congratulations! Whoever has a crush on Sharjeena is going to become an uncle soon.”
Another fan commented on the new plot point by writing, “Sharjeena at the moment Mustafa rescued her from toxic in-laws.” Attached was a picture of a pregnant Kylie Jenner that read, “Next thing I knew, I was pregnant.” A different fan posted, “Sharjeena be like, I forgot to tell you I’m a teensy bit pregnant.”
With spirits and tensions both higher than ever, viewers are on the edge of their seats as they wait for the next episode. One enthusiast described the narrative position aptly: “Both Adeel’s downfall and Mustafa’s rich era start from next week. I used to pray for times like this!”
