My Favourite TV Soap

Television has always played an important role in my life maybe because it supports me when I am lonely and feeling bored. Although currently I am left with very little time for television, there are some shows I really miss watching. Let me share with you a bit about my favourite TV soap.

Why I liked to watch Qubool Hai?

Qubool Hai is a soap opera on ZEE TV, produced by 4 Lions Films. It aired every Mon-Fri at 9:30 pm IST. The show had become extremely popular within a really short span of time and in just less than 5 months of its launch, the show became the no.1 show on ZEE TV.
