"Our very own Peter Parker and Mary."
An upcoming episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai features a scene that social media users have pointed out looks very similar to one featured in Spider-Man.
The episode will show lead characters Akshara (Pranali Rathod) and Abhimanyu (Harshad Chopda) finally confessing their feelings for each other.
But the way the sequence is presented has attracted a lot of attention.
Social media users pointed out that it looks similar to an iconic scene from 2002’s Spider-Man.
The scene shows Akshara crying and screaming that she loves Abhimanyu.
He suddenly appears in front of her, hanging upside down from a tree.
Dramatic music plays before they smile at each other.
Akshara is then seen holding Abhimanyu’s head.
The scene immediately reminded fans of the iconic kiss from Spider-Man in which Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) appears upside down in front of Mary Jane (Kirsten Dunst).
She partially removes his mask and the pair kiss in the rain.
The scene is so iconic that it is known as the Spider-Man kiss.
Finally Akshara confessed ? ?? Yeh agar dream sequence nikalta na tou…. ?
Anyway here we hv itv k Spiderman & MJ ? ?
