Imran Abbas glad 'Zindagi' will air Pakistan's best shows

  • Imran Abbas glad 'Zindagi' will air Pakistan's best shows
Pakistani TV actor Imran Abbas is happy that Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited's new channel "Zindagi" will beam Pakistan TV's top rated shows in India.
 
With handpicked stories by acclaimed writers, the channel will launch June 23 and will air shows like "Aunn Zara" and "Zindagi Gulzar Hai".
 
"These are Pakistan's best top rated projects that have garnered highest TRPs. So it's a good thing that those shows are being shown, which have been our favourites," said Imran at the launch Monday.
 
"We have been enjoying your shows for a long time. First the Indian channels were aired illegally and then Indian channels were banned. 
 
"But then they found a new way. The channels bought the rights of the Indian shows and started airing them. So we know all your actors, their families. You might not know about them as much as we do," he added.
 
Along with TV serials, "Zindagi" will also telecast Pakistani telefilms.
 
Imran has also signed a Bollywood film, Vikram Bhatt's directorial venture "Creature 3D" with Bipasha Basu.
