Pakistani drama fans thought they were signing up for romance, but instead got a full-on Bollywood-style dance struggle! In the latest episode of Mann Mast Malang, Kabir Khan (Danish Taimoor) got a little too grabby with Riya Asghar Ali (Sahar Hashmi), turning what should have been a sweet moment into a “hold my popcorn” controversy.
Viewers took to social media faster than you can say “Drama!” to slam the scene, calling it “over the top,” “way too spicy,” and, frankly, “not what we signed up for.” Many fans argued that Pakistani dramas used to keep it classy with subtle romance, but now it feels like someone hit the Bollywood remix button and forgot the volume control.
One fan tweeted, “Is this a drama or a dance battle? Harassment disguised as romance? No, thank you!” Another joked, “Danish Taimoor, we love you, but this scene? Not your best dance move, buddy!”
The biggest concern? That such scenes might confuse innocent viewers about what’s okay and what’s not—because nobody wants their favorite drama to turn into a lesson on “What Not To Do.”
In short: Pakistani dramas, can we tone down the spice and bring back the sweet? The fans are begging!
