More About Bulbulay
The show’s creator Nabeel Zafar shared how he started this venture with four friends Ali Imran, Rana Rizwan, and Azmat. The actor-cum-producer wanted to produce something so he asked his friend to give him a role in a sitcom. As the drama progressed they turned it into a family play after the wedding sequel.
“Many people know this, we started Bulbulay in 2009 and it was written in 2006,”
That’s how the hilarious show came to be.
Additionally, the show’s most famous character ‘Momo‘, which is played by Hina Dilpazeer, was written for just one episode. She was supposed to make appearances off and on. However, her fame led to Momo becoming a permanent part of the drama.
Talking about the success factors of the drama serial, the creator said that the popularity of the drama isn’t because of anyone’s character, it is a team effort.
