Fatmagul, the blockbuster Turkish show that airs on Zindagi, Monday to Saturday at 8:50 pm, has been extremely well received and appreciated by the Indian audiences. The handpicked show from Turkey is a fine example of good storytelling that Zindagi as a channel for premium audiences is known for. This show has not only got the viewers hooked on to their screens but has also helped Zindagi, the No. 1 Premium Entertainment Channel, garner impressive ratings.

Since its inception, Zindagi's endeavour has been to present great stories from across the world to Indian audiences.

I'm not surprised. Ever since Kunal Karan Kapoor was to star in it, knowing fully well, How Much He Is Awaited On Screen, and what a fabulous actor he is, the show generated lot of interest.
Kunal is talked about actor online. Even those who don't claim to be his fans, admit, He Got Acting Talent. I'm also watching Fatmagul on Zee Zindagi now.
For Hindi version I lost interest after Kunal's exit. Most of newbies, if have good looks, lack the talent. In any case now I know story, got used to this Turkish version so won't watch. Timing too is bad. @ZeeZindagi @StarPlus
