The Neha Kakkar T-Series vs. Falguni Pathak meme emerged from the 2022 controversy surrounding the song 'O Sajna,' a remake of the 1999 classic 'Maine Payal Hai Chhankai.' The internet erupted when the original singer, Falguni Pathak, publicly voiced her disapproval of the remix by sharing fan criticisms on social media. This sparked a wave of memes comparing the 'original' vs 'remake,' typically used to represent the conflict between cherished childhood nostalgia and the corporate trend of recycling old hits. The meme format often depicts Falguni Pathak as the defender of artistic integrity while Neha Kakkar and T-Series represent the commercialization of 90s pop culture.
