Farewell to a great man and one of the history makers of our land.
Mr. Reza Qutabi was so modest and lived so modest that many remained unaware of his value and place in the history of our land. It is unbelievable the achievements of this great man! From the foundation of the Iranian National Television Radio to the creation of television production and broadcasting centers throughout our land, even in places that the central government had forgotten for years. Establishing large festivals such as art festival, formation of numerous theatrical and musical and cinematic groups such as open cinema and telefilm and ….. Giving arena to writers and artists with whom the regime was at war ….
And this great man always remained the friend of thousands of his employees across Iran and against the pressure of the security systems so that he could shield the plight of his employees and if they were captured, he would help their families.
His monuments can be found in countless works of art that were the result of his efforts.
I am proud to have worked for an organization that he was the CEO
I am proud that I knew him.
Mr. Polar was free and will remain free.
Condolences to his wife and children, colleagues of radio television and all Iranian people
