His other notable projects include Ajaib Ghar, Din, Qissa Saat Raaton Ka, Daldal, Payal and Dais Pardes. Actor Nabeel is currently known for his extremely hit sitcom Bulbulay which has been airing for 14 years.
Recently, Nabeel Zafar has appeared in Alief Tv’s talk show, hosted by Farah Iqrar. In the show, he revealed the unknown details about the hit sitcom Bulbulay.
Talking about Bulbulay, Nabeel said, “I returned from England in 2009 and was looking to do something independently. Previously, I was already working as a co-producer. However, when I was about to start my own production, I asked my mother to pray for the success of my projects. She reassured me, saying, ‘Don’t worry; I will request Allah for your production venture.’ After her prayers, I approached my friend Ali Imran for a script for free, and he gave (an already written) script which was “Bulbulay”. Then, I requested Rana Rizwan to direct it. I also brought Mehmood Aslam on board because he was my friend and was ready to work on a low budget.
Talking about the female cast, Nabeel said, “all the female actors refused to play Khoobsurat in the sitcom. I approached Maria Wasti for “Khoobsurat,” but she had other engagements. She referred Ayesha Omar to me who agreed to join “Bulbulay.” Later, I signed Hina Dilpazeer for one episode. She sketched her character, and her episode was loved by the fans. Hina expressed her desire to become a permanent part, so we conceived the character as Mehmood Sahab’s wife. In addition to “Bulbulay,” I directed “Ras Gullay,” “Honey Moon,” “Love Kay Liye,” “Dugdugi,” and other dramas, but “Bulbulay” is the longest and most successful venture.
Discussing the huge success of “Bulbulay,”, he mentioned that even special children are Bulbulay’s fans. He shared an interesting story about a fan from Bangalore, India. Here is the link to the detailed video:
