Hubahu is an Indian television miniseries. The story revolves around a pair of twin sisters who exchange places for a lark but end up getting intricately involved in each other's lives.[1] The story is an adaption of the 1985s hit American two-part made-for-TV movie Deceptions, starring known Hollywood actors Stefanie Powers and Barry Bostwick, in which Powers starred as twins who swap places leading to dire consequences.[2]

The series premiered on Sony Entertainment Television on 7 February 2002.[3] The series starred Sandhya Mridul in the lead who played the characters of both sisters, Aditi and Ananya.[4] Produced by Parvati Balagopalan and Milind Soman (Season 1) and Tony Singh and Deeya Singh (since Season 2) it was shot in Mumbai and Bangkok.[3][5]

Concept

The story portrays the lives of twin sisters Aditi and Ananya who have very different personalities. Aditi is a bored and neglected housewife in Pune whose lecturer husband has no time for her.
