  11. Since they show reruns of foreign shows, they should also have reruns of our own old-time TUSHAURIANE. It was a good drama.

  12. Can someone please provide me with pictures of Usher Mali's house design photos....I really love her house and the way it is decorated, interior and exterior design. I kindly request for details of those premises that she acts in as her home.
