Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Mastooran is the first major Iranian series to adapt Shahnameh alongside Golestan and Kashkoul as interwoven source material rather than separate adaptations.
The narrator, Mohammad Reza Sarshar, traditionally performs classical Persian poetry—a casting choice that blurs documentary and fiction.
