Source-derived summary

Hasht Behesht (Persian: هشت‌بهشت, lit. 'the Eight Heavens') is an Iranian comedy series. The series is directed by Saeed Alemzadeh.

About the series

The series was supposed to be made in three 30-episode seasons, but only one season was made. The season aired on Channel IRIB Shoma in 2012 and has since been rebroadcast on Channel IRIB TV3 and iFilm. Almost 50 actors have played roles in this series.

Storyline

There is a bazaar called the exhibition of handicrafts and food, which is specific to all Iranian ethnic groups, and all ethnic groups participate in this exhibition. There are two hotels near the bazaar that belong to two brothers who have a dispute over their father's inheritance. The existence of a bazaar and the arrival of Iranian tribes from other cities causes another competition between these two brothers, which creates interesting events.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “2012 television Series” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Object files, edition statements, performance records and contemporary criticism preserve different stages of the work’s history. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 11, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q90011674. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2012.

Critical limits

Rights, attribution and provenance may remain disputed even when a general reference summary presents a stable account. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Separate the work, its editions or performances, and its later reception. Catalogue records, publication histories and object files often preserve different parts of that story.
