“A new bond is blossoming.”
Kubra Khan has recently captured the audience’s imagination with her role in ARY Digital’s popular drama serial Noor Jahan.
In Noor Jahan, Kubra Khan is paired with a young and relatively new actor, Ali Raza.
Within the drama’s narrative, she portrays the youngest daughter-in-law of the titular character.
Recently, ARY Digital’s official Instagram account shared a promotional poster featuring Kubra Khan and Ali Raza with the caption:
“A new bond is blossoming.”
This post aimed to highlight the developing relationship between their characters in the series.
However, the on-screen pairing of Kubra Khan and Ali Raza has not been well-received by the audience.
Fans expressed their displeasure, feeling that because Ali Raza is younger than Kubra Khan, it creates an unconvincing romantic dynamic.
Many fans voiced their opinions that Kubra Khan deserved to be paired with more established actors such as Noor Hassan or Ali Rehman Khan.
This sentiment was echoed widely across social media, where viewers criticised the casting choices.
The dissatisfaction did not stop at just one pairing.
Users were equally critical of the other couples featured in the drama.
One social media user commented: “Kubra Khan should have advocated for being paired with Noor Hassan instead.”
Another user remarked: “The drama itself is engaging, but the couples don’t match well.”
A viewer expressed: “The casting is off. Kubra Khan deserves a co-star like Ali Rehman Khan.”
In addition to the specific comments, there was a consensus among the audience that the casting choices undermined the drama’s potential.
This dissatisfaction was evident through numerous harsh comments directed at the actors on social media.
Viewers were candid in their criticism, reflecting a broader disappointment with the casting direction of the series.
One user said: “This drama had so much potential. But Kubra looks so bad with this hero.”
Another wrote:
“Kubra looks like his mom. Maybe tone down her makeup a bit.”
One commented: “Because of such a mismatch of actors, this drama is not at all interesting to watch.”
Another added: “Both the daughters-in-law are so much older than the sons. It is very annoying.”
One remarked: “Kubra is not a young woman. Stop giving her roles that do not go with her age.”
Despite the controversy surrounding the casting, the drama has managed to maintain its popularity, thanks in part to its compelling storyline.
