Solution
The correct option is D Parody
A parody is an imitation of the style of a particular writer, artist, or genre with deliberate exaggeration for comic effect. For example, "the film is a parody of the horror genre". Hence, Option D is correct. Among the rest of the options, counterfeit means a fraudulent imitation of something else, sonnet means a fraudulent imitation of something else, caricature means a picture, description, or imitation of a person in which certain striking characteristics are exaggerated in order to create a comic or grotesque effect. These options do not express the intended meaning, hence incorrect.
