“I Paid Syed Nabeel to Type the Script,”Jin Ki Shadi Un Ki Shadi” Claims Director Shamoon Abbasi in Drama Credit Feud
The long-running dispute over the credit for Pakistan’s popular drama “Jin Ki Shadi Un Ki Shadi” has flared up
The long-running dispute over the credit for Pakistan’s popular drama “Jin Ki Shadi Un Ki Shadi” has flared up again, with director, producer, and actor Shamoon Abbasi making a bold new claim. Abbasi has asserted that not only was the concept his, but he also paid writer Syed Nabeel to type the story.
In a detailed video statement on Facebook, Shamaan Abbasi recounted how he conceived the idea for the drama, narrated the entire story to Syed Nabeel, and then paid him to transcribe it.
Allegations of Inability and Theft
Abbasi went a step further by questioning Syed Nabeel’s writing capabilities. He claimed, “Syed Nabeel cannot write a single page on his own. The real work is the idea and the story, which I provided, and the typing work was given to Syed Nabeel.”
He completely rejected Syed Nabeel’s long-standing claims of being the drama’s writer. Abbasi challenged Syed Nabeel to provide solid evidence that he wrote the story himself, threatening otherwise to reveal the names of the people who allegedly helped him “steal” the plot.
This latest accusation comes after Syed Nabeel previously admitted in an interview that the initial idea for the drama was indeed Shamaan Abbasi’s, but maintained that he (Nabeel) was the one who actually wrote the story.
