With characters and scenes from Pathaan gaining popularity since its release, fans have been quoting certain dialogues and moments from the Hindi blockbuster. In the past week, as scenes involving the lead actors Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham went viral, an influencer put up her version of Rubai in Pathaan on Instagram. However, as the comments from her Instagram Reel show, many fans feel her interpretation of Deepika in the film was completely off the mark.

Sharing Deepika's main scenes from the film, the influencer, Sonalika Puri, wrote, "She nailed it, as always (flexed bicep emoji). shoot , costume, motivation & and patience credits - @tracingsilhouettes. #pathaan #deepikapadukone #shahrukhkhan #movies #Bollywood." The Reel also includes some half-hearted action scenes, but mostly involves Deepika's Rubai saying her dialogues in Pathaan.
One Instagram user shared, "Is it just me or did she not do it right? Neither the voice matched, nor the intonation, nor the pronunciation." Another stated, "The lack of expression is so expressive." While a Deepika fan replied, "Sorry bt No one in this world can match her , not even a little bit !" Yet another said, "Not even 1% close to real, btw try karte rehna cahiye (keep at it)." Very few users agreed that her mimicry was on point. One user replied, "Just got back home after watching Pathan! This is so accurate! You’re awesome girl." Another person, referring to the mimicry of Alia Bhatt in Brahmastra, said, “It is better than Shivaaa Shivaaa Shivaaa tum theek ho.”
