I saw few promos of Thakan starring Saba and It is pretty clear the main concept is highly copied from magine Tv's Jyoti..The same working girl eldest girl.Father is handicapped,A selfish brother who is preparing for engineering just to waste the money .A selfish younger sister.Even the mother is same ,who does not want her daughter to be married because she is the golden goose of the family.Thakan telecasted on 2012 ..Jyoti shown in 2009 ..So it is a copy .IDK if it is a remake or not ..But there is a huge inspiration ..I feel proud that I was a ardent viewer of that lovely show...even more proud now because the show actually was remade in another country ..

What do u think??
Did u all watched the promos of Thakan?
Do u think it is copied from Jyoti?
How many of you watched Jyoti? What is ur take on that show??

I had watched Jyoti. I followed it for a little while before the hero went bonkers and divorced her. Everything after that was lame.

Going by the promos it does appear to be the same. But since Pak shows have a limited no. of episodes I wonder where this one will end.

The story as such is quite common. There is also a movie which had Rekha in it which also had a similar story...I do not remember the name now.

I rthink only relief will be that its not going haywire after sometime because of TRP as Pak shows has limited episodes and sticks to story . Many movies were based on the same issue .

SPOILERS for Jyoti:

The female lead was in love with a guy who was a two timing jerk. He cheated on her with her younger sister sushma and later married sushma.


Jyoti falls in love with a rich, blind guy and they both marry. He later divorces her thanks to a scheming saas. They were the same age, but he was blind. Later jyoti marries another guy who comes from a very conservative family and then first guy turns villainšŸ¤¢šŸ˜†

Yes, its the same story line.
Copied or not, I don't know.

Like I mentioned before, even Mera Naseeb is a straight lift from an Indian novel. No credits given to author or to the book. A recent TV Pak serial had a Hindi film song as their OST also.

I've seen Thakan. I've not seen Jyoti though..some parts of Thakan's storyline is similar to that of Jyoti's from whatever summary you've given of the latter. However, it's not entirely the same. I don't know if Thakan is an original script or a novel adaptation though..because the writer, Faiza Iftikhar...usually uses her novels as her screenplay.
