The drama ‘Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum’ has become a sensation, captivating audiences and sparking conversations across the entertainment world. Every artist, whether involved in the show or not, seems to have something to say about this massive hit.

Renowned actress Atiqa Odho recently stirred up intrigue when she revealed that she was offered a role in ‘Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum.’

In a recent interview, the show’s director, Badar Mehmood, shared that he initially offered Atiqa the role of Fahad Mustafa’s mother. The host noted that this was news to them, and Atiqa elaborated, saying, “I felt the character would be better portrayed by someone of that age bracket, suggesting that Bushra Ansari was a perfect fit.”

“I didn’t feel it was a role that suited me,” she explained.

Interestingly, Atiqa has previously portrayed the mothers of actors like Danish Taimoor and Tipu Sharif in Kaisi Teri Khudgarzi (2022) and Affan Waheed in Pardes (2021). So why the hesitation this time? Atiqa hinted that playing the mother of characters like Mustafa, Emmad Irfani, and Maya Khan might make her seem much older than she’d prefer.

This has raised questions among fans: does Atiqa view herself as a “young mother” onscreen? While she might be comfortable in roles alongside younger actors, she may be less so in roles where her on-screen age would seem more advanced, as in Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum.

There’s no doubt that Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum is the biggest hit of the season. Atiqa’s decision to pass on the role – and her reflections on it – leave audiences wondering if there’s a touch of regret at missing the chance to be part of this blockbuster series.

Viewers have nothing but praise for Bushra Ansari, whose performance as Shagufta has been widely acclaimed.

Odho’s recent focus has been her drama critique show Kya Drama Hai where she provides balanced reviews on trending dramas.
Atiqa has starred in many a hit serials including Sitara Aur Mehrunissa, Dasht, Nijaat, Dao, Humsafar and Dhoka.

Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum is written by Farhat Ishtiaq and directed by Badar Mehmood.
