Mokhtarnameh

Mokhtar is a Shia Muslim leader who set up a movement in 686 A.D in the town of Kufa to avenge the death of Imam Hussein (AS). 'Mokhtarnameh' is the sixth TV series directed by Mirbaqeri. The series, which took five years to complete, includes 42 episodes and is produced by Sima Films. The story reviews the events leading to the martyrdom of the Imams and ends with the adolescence of Mokhtar. The film also deals with 16 years of Mokhtar's life and includes the death of Mo'awiyah, the succession of Yazid ibn-Mo'awiyah, and the events leading to Ashura and whatever related to the uprising of Mokhtar until his and his companions' martyrdom I saw this film one of the best TV film. real story and history of Mokhtar. I suggest everyone to see this. enjoy and learn.

Mokhtarnameh has been the undisputed champion of Iranian TV.

Despite all the problems of censorship and meeting arbitrary thresholds imposed by the state TV, and the narrow minded criticism from few critics, it remains watchable even today, after multiple airings every year around the same occasions. It also tailors itself to a broader audience with its non-religion-specific appeal. What keeps you interested is well-balanced so as not to be exclusively and neither be devoid of any cultural background.

The most gripping part is the brilliant well-thought screenplay, so Shakespearean I'd dare say it fares quite well in comparison to timeless renowned TV shows starring the best of Hollywood.

I wish we, as Iranians, got more of this. I wish filmmakers and TV producers put more effort into their work than the hollow mediocre cash grab that everything seems to be nowadays. I wish every show was a Mokhtarnameh.
