Pakistani brand Olivia does a 'copy, paste' job using Indian ad featuring Kareena Kapoor Khan

View both the versions of the film here

An ad featuring Kareena Kapoor Khan was run for beauty care brand Olivia in a commercial break during the telecast of the Pakistan Super League (the country's version of India's IPL).

The ad was a replica of the BBlunt Salon Secret that was released in India in August 2016.

The only change in the film was the product pack in the hands of the brand ambassador.
