Ever caught yourself saying, “He’s a total copy of his dad!”? That’s exactly what makes “like father, like son” moments so much fun to watch. Sometimes, it’s not just the face. It’s the same mischievous grin, stubborn streak, signature expressions or even a familiar walk that instantly gives it away. Bollywood has given us countless such moments over the years, and now Star Plus’ Udne Ki Aasha is bringing that very emotion to television through Laksh, whose striking resemblance to Sachin is impossible to miss.

Just recently, Akshaye Khanna’s Dhurandhar entry sent fans down memory lane as they drew parallels with Vinod Khanna’s iconic dance step. Ranbir Kapoor’s effortless charm continues to remind audiences of Rishi Kapoor, Ibrahim Ali Khan’s resemblance to a young Saif Ali Khan is impossible to miss, while Abhishek Bachchan and Tiger Shroff often carry traces of Amitabh Bachchan’s commanding presence and Jackie Shroff’s trademark swagger. Time and again, these father-son similarities have reminded audiences that some traits are simply passed down through generations.

Udne Ki Aasha is now recreating that same emotion with its latest post-leap track. Laksh may have just entered the Deshmukh family after the seven-year leap, but his carefree attitude, mischievous antics and stubborn streak make him feel like a younger Sachin. The irony is that viewers can see the resemblance instantly, while the father and son themselves remain oblivious to the truth that binds them.

Tune in to Udne Ki Aasha’s new chapter tonight at 8:30 PM on Star Plus and anytime on JioHotstar.
