Criticism of replacement with Mah-e Asal

edit

After replacing Mesle Mah with Mah-e Asal and also making similar Mah-e Asal programs on IRIB networks during Ramadan 2020, there were criticisms of such programs and TV managers that make the replacement of popular and successful programs without the necessary quality. Part of the criticism was that in Ramadan 2020, every network made a program in the format of the Mah-e Asal and the presenter tried to perform like Ehsan Alikhani, but they failed.[12][13]

Responding to the criticism, the host, Resalat Bouzari, said:

My brother Ehsan Alikhani and I have 2 different forms and 2 different worlds in performance, and I think connecting these two worlds in performance is very meaningless. On the other hand, for everyone else who was in my place, this analogy would happen to him, as if Ehsan Alikhani wanted to perform "Mokhatabe Khas", a kind of judgment would be made about what he had not seen before. The "Mah-e Asal" program was performed by other people even in some years, and I do not have a mentality now that when Alikhani took over the performance, there were any reactions or attacks, but this is a judgment of a program like "Mesle Mah" that the first year Experiencing its own production, I find it unfair. I'm not saying be sure to compare us to the first year of the "Mah-e Asal", but at least compare it to the fifth and sixth years, not the twelfth year and the branded program.[14]
