Controversy

Ambiguities about the writer of the series

In one of the episodes of the Haft TV program, it was said that the is script of the TV series "Khaneh be Dosh" and the plot of the TV series "The Accused Escaped" from Asghar Farhadi. In a program on Channel Shoma, Maryam Amir Jalali raised this issue again and said that the main writer of this series and the series "Khaneh be Dosh" was Asghar Farhadi, but at that time, because he wanted to be mentioned only in cinematic works, He preferred not to have his name in the serial titration! Shortly afterwards, Saeed Aghakhani announced on the same program on Channel Shoma that the writers of both series are the same ones whose names are mentioned in the credits and that Ms. Amir Jalali spoke because of her lack of nobility in the whole subject.
