Minal Khan, Kylie Jenner and some fruit — the story of how a fruit platter got way too much attention
If you have seen this fruit platter more times than you have seen your family members in the past 24 hours — you are not alone. What is going on? Why have these trays of fancy fruit got so much clout all of a sudden? Well, it all has to do with Minal Khan.
On Monday, reality star and cosmetic mogul Kylie Jenner posted a food pic including a napkin that read "KylieAir" on her Instagram story.
A few hours later, we saw an identical fruit platter on Khan's story with the napkin conveniently cropped out — and no explanation given.
While it is completely alright to take inspiration from someone and hop on a trend, you need to give credit where it is due. Or at least hint in any way that what you are posting is not original content but something that appealed to you on the internet.
When netizens noticed neither of the two conditions were met, it was assumed that the Ishq Hai actor had indulged in some control C and control V. This, of course, led to a whole lot of memes on Pakistani Twitter.
Khan's reaction to the memes was re-sharing one of them, saying posting a screenshot of someone else's story equates to "soul satisfaction" for her.
Some people had genuine questions.
We guess that is one possibility in the infinite realm of possibilities.
Whoa, the napkin was actually PIA's. Besties headed to Gilgit!
Little did we know there was a third person present too.
Yes, Kylie — not cool. Please be more original.
Oops.
Inflation got us like.
After seeing all the memes and reactions, all we can say is that this fruit platter got a lot of attention.
