Na hewa ni ni one hour. So I think sijuka mamilinotis kwa mamika 8.30 to 9.30, that was one hour. So ni kituambia ya ifa nika na ni from Monday to Friday. Aha, na labdum na ezo katuambia embona one hour kwa sababu wenginu ona pewa 30 minutes, 45 minutes. But how come you guys got this chance of actually having a longer time? I think back then tumewo nyesha kwa mba we can do it. As a company you've seen kwa mba tuna handle so many productions at a go. So na ukiangalia katika hiyo hour ni tumepewa, most of the time wani Mexican subs is a one hour. So sayi serakalu na sema kwa mba at least 70% ama 80% iwa local content. But desawa kwa ona I think Jifi can do it. So ni kujaribu, ni kufungulia milangu kwa producers wengi na mba tukimali za zari, wenda wengi na piya waka chikwe yu slot, waka fanya one hour as well. So mwanzu kabisa wacha ni kumbe congratulations kwa kazi ni Zari ni kazi amazing sana and maybe what is different that you've done so many movies, series me fanya mingi labda ni kitu gani tofa uti na bachu me kifanya kwa zari.

Ni ule mtu ampia awezi kumbali kumbatu lale na makasriku. We need to talk. Atakamu una difanya wew na matandram zelwat you have to talk before mula lale. Na labda tukiruli apu kwa zarite na lulu. Na yuwa the previous series and bomb me produced sometimes muna tumia main characters muna tumia sura ambazo tudazio na kabisa. Lakini kwa ii me tumia that we've seen over and over. Maybe you could tell us briefly what led to that decision. Actually, this show is very huge. Na isho atokyongia na cast na crew as much as ndiyo tunataka tukuse vipadi vipia but he show ii na itadi dedication ii na awjaya ona. This is a one hour show, a daily show. So you can imagine the number of hours ii na watu wana weka kwa yukanzi. Na tuchikwem tu very green adiawai wala yuki muika kwa yuwa set atakubali kwen delea. Atafil kwen bana tukeshu. Kwa sasa kwa show kama zadekeshu na tatushu na ne we can use the new faces. Menelewa but for one hour trust me ata tukia ii job. Ata tukia ata tata wana ii kazi kumbe wana kumwevo. Lakini kwa ulemba ii nmzohefu it'll be easy for that person. Uki angalia izari ma nusuni new but herwa tech roles kuba wana tech roles kuba wana itadika daily kwa set from Monday to Friday to we just rest on Saturday and Sunday. Baby apart from na ni asubu ii from 6 to June itata game ii mta maliza 10 p.m. ne. So you can imagine kumwe kumtu mone pashone kini acting lakini sasa wuki mu introduce jubia kwa zani atawana ii nmfa nisha kazi kama punda but kumtu mone ii kupashonet about it wala ii wafanya kazi. Baby apart from auditions what else do you look in someone before mpa ti ii kazi mii bimfanya na ii kazi mii chituga na bachu muna ki zingatia sana. Kitamba we use to look at discipline na utenda kazi wam because you know what our sa ni our iile wikwamba producers talk me nilewa.
