‘Very Filmy’: Dananeer Mobeen Channels Aishwarya Rai’s ‘Paro’

The ‘Pawri’ girl shared BTS glimpses from her Ramadan special.

Pawri girl Dananeer Mobeen has left fans mesmerized by channeling Aishwarya Rai’s iconic character Paro from the Bollywood film Devdas.

The talented actress/influencer took to her Instagram to share behind-the-scenes glimpses from her Ramadan drama serial Very Filmy, where she embodies the essence of Paro with grace and finesse.

In the shared BTS clicks, Dananeer flawlessly channels Aishwarya’s style, capturing every detail of Paro’s character with remarkable accuracy. From her attire to her expressions, Dananeer’s dedication to portraying the beloved Bollywood diva’s timeless magic is evident.

One particular video shared by the actress showcases her offering a flawless performance on the song “Silsila Ye Chaahat Ka” while holding an oil lamp (diya) in her palm, reminiscent of a scene from Devdas.

Her rendition of Paro’s character, coupled with her graceful dance moves, further emphasizes her commitment to delivering an authentic portrayal.

Very Filmy, the Ramadan special series, boasts a star-studded cast featuring industry veterans such as Bushra Ansari, Ali Safina, Mira Sethi, and others. Directed by Ali Hassan and produced by Momina Duraid, the drama promises a captivating narrative for audiences during the holy month of Ramadan.

Despite the anticipation surrounding the series, it has faced criticism from netizens for featuring recreations of iconic Indian films, particularly scenes where the hero imitates Shah Rukh Khan’s characters. The inclusion of sequences inspired by well-known movies like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Pathaan, and Devdas has sparked calls for a ban on the project.

Critics argue that the replication of Indian films in a Ramadan drama series is inappropriate and distasteful, reflecting a disconnect from the cultural sensitivities of the audience.

The controversy surrounding these scenes has prompted discussions about the portrayal of Indian content in Pakistani media, particularly during religiously significant periods.
