Mokhtarnameh

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.

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.

Mokhtar proved everyone can be looklike Imam hossein in Ashura The lesson of this part of history is the worst people are people who do wrong and makeup that wrong looklike right they are look like a coin who one side of it is picture of god and other side is evil wise persons see the evil and stupids see the god cause they come with cloth of humanity honesty and god but all they done is what evil do and the one who make them be effective are people who see the evil behavior but be quiet because of stupid reasons There are 1000 reasons for running away of truth But one reason is enough for action correctly.

A detailed and historical series about one of the most important periods in the history of Shiite Islam. The story of a clever man and a politician waging a massive uprising to avenge the tragic death of Imam Hussein. However, the series was produced by IRIB/Iran and the director was forced to censor and remove parts of the series. But it is definitely a fascinating story for Shiite followers. Production of this series took 12 years
