Seffy wrote: “I gave these paintings to Frere Hall for an exhibition in 2017.

“After that, I never got them back. They told me that they went missing and they couldn’t find them.

“Now, I saw the same paintings in a drama that is airing on ARY Digital.

“They can be seen in Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum, Episode 17, time 42:45.
