Zindagi is now showing only 4 shows from Pakistan/Turkey on their premiere run namely Vasl, Mohabbat Subah Ka Sitara Hai, Malika e Aliya and Namak Parey. Out of these four shows,Namak Parey is shown on weekends. Vasl will probably be replaced by Ishqaway.
Instead of telecasting new shows, they will be telecasting Babul Ki Duaein, Antara and Vrindavan Ki Radhika, that are 162, 175, and 803 episodes long respectively. Assuming they are broadcast 6 days a week, it means that the shows will be on for 27, 29, and 134 weeks respectively. As a result, no new shows will be broadcast in their time slots for more than 6 months to nearly 2.5 years.

Among the shows they promised to show last year, they still have not broadcast Dil Dhoondta Hai aka Paani Jaisa Pyar starring Saba Qamar and Mikaal Zulfikar.

They created a new afternoon band to broadcast news shows, which they have now discarded. Now they are going all in with retreads. What is their strategy here? They have deviated from "Jodey Dilon Ko" slogan that bandied about 2 years ago.

I agree they should show Pakistani content/turkish content only. They could have shown new Pak movies that came out in the last few years. Its annoying to see all those old zee shows...😡

Because pak shows run on a swasonal basis and 30 episodes shown in 30 weeks.
Ut of a total of 30 shows only 1 or 3 are hits.

So they need to put filler shiws or perhaps flop shows of pak as they show all 30 eps in 1 month.

There arent many pak shows out there. We take em slow and steady and zindagi shows them in a rush.

Only 2015 and 2016 year is left before that they have covered all hit shiws released from 2011 till 2014.

Pak tv indistry is relatively new and its format and inflow of money into production and channels started around 2009.

So u all have to wait until the shows of 216 also comolete thier swasons. There areonly about 11 to 12 hit shows between 2015 and 2016. Which should cover 12 motnha for zindagi.

I think they are just buying time. Which is dumb coz they can shiw turkish,croatian and south american tv shows in that time slot.

They could show telefilms or movies instead. But they have not done that.

Only 2015 and 2016 year is left before that they have covered all hit shiws released from 2011 till 2014.


I don't think so, otherwise they would have shown Bunty, I love you and Sadqay Tumhare as well.
