Hubahu (transl. Same to same) 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. 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.
The series premiered on Sony Entertainment Television on 7 February 2002. The series starred Sandhya Mridul in the lead who played the characters of both sisters, Aditi and Ananya. 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.
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.
