Music producer Yashraj Mukhate had turned the now-famous dialogue from the Hindi TV show Saath Nibhaana Saathiya into a rap song.
It has been weeks since the ‘Rasode Mein Kaun Tha’ meme went viral on social media, however, it seems like India, as well as, Union Miniter Smriti Irani isn’t yet done humming this dialogue-turned-rap song.
On Sunday, Irani took to her official Instagram account and shared a spoof version of the viral video clip with her fans. The video clip featured Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi as well. The spoof video, edited by a page called Meme_Hub, shows Smriti Irani delivering the now-famous Kokilaben dialogue. Instead of Gopi Bahu and Rashi ben, the video has Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi.
Irani captioned her video saying, “Bas ab yahi bacha tha (sic).”

The clip ended with BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra saying “Rahul hi Rashi hai”. For the uninitiated, Sambit Patra recited the entire viral rap-song on live television and concluded it saying that Rahul is Rashi. Almost two weeks back, music producer Yashraj Mukhate turned the now-famous dialogue from the Hindi TV show Saath Nibhaana Saathiya into a rap song.

Rupal Patel aka Kokilaben herself had reacted to the video recently and expressed her gratitude to Yashraj on the viral video. Rupal had said, “My sister-in-law sent me a message about it. Later my co-actor, Rhea Sharma sent me the rap. My immediate reaction was surprise and shock. I was perplexed about how Yashraj got this clip since I never sang on the show. Later, I realised that it’s a rap and he has used my dialogues for it (laughs!). I liked it so much that I asked a few friends for his number. I spoke to him and expressed my gratitude.”
On Smriti Irani’s reaction to the video, Rupal had said, “I am humbled and grateful for Smriti (Irani) madam for liking it. I am not on any social media platforms as I don’t want to be distracted when I am working.”
When asked if she was offended by the viral video, Rupal had said, “A viewer expresses his appreciation in different ways. It could be a funny response, too. Why should I feel offended? That’s one of the ways to express your love, too. I always go by the intent behind the response. Aur mujhe woh kabhi galat nahi laga. The character has made a mark on people’s minds and hence, they remember it to date. In fact, a lady would impersonate me on a video-sharing social networking service. I found it very funny. I don’t mind that at all, as I know the intent is not to harm or offend anyone.”
