Sarabhai vs Sarabhai is one of the most loved shows on Indian television to this date, with a pretty stable fan base. Writer and producer Aatish Kapadia had recently taken to his Facebook account and had expressed his disapproval over an unofficial remake of his cult show Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai in Pakistan.

Now, actor Rajesh Kumar aka Rosesh Sarabhai has also opened up about the rip-off. In an interview with Hindustan Times, Rajesh said that they completely misunderstood the essence of the sitcom. 

He said, "We got this as a Whatsapp forward and couldn’t believe that this has actually happened. This Pakistani show called Chana Jor Garam is a frame to frame copy. It's a total copyright violation. They’ve destroyed the essence of the show, seems like they’ve not understood the show to begin with and made a complete mockery out of it. The humour is substandard. It's a disaster." 

Rajesh further added that whoever has watched the original Sarabhai vs Sarabhai won't stand for this adaptation. 

"Aatish Kapadia has rightly said, it’s a daylight robbery. To me, this is dacoity. People are taking advantage of the things available in our country and recreating a show without understanding the social structure it was based on, without knowing the storyline properly. They’re just making a circus out of it. It's utterly ridiculous. I don’t think a classic show like this can be recreated," he said. 

Rajesh also spoke about the possibility of the third season of Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai and said, "This has been a constant discussion as we want to bring the show back but then we all have other commitments. Rupali (Ganguly) is busy with her show, Sumeet’s (Raghvan) new show is coming, Ratna (Pathak Shah) ji is busy with her films and I’m busy with my web show. We all need to come together to do this and hoping that happens soon."
