Mirada de Mujer (1997)
Mirada de mujer is a Mexican telenovela, which was produced by and broadcast on TV Azteca in 1997, based in the Colombian telenovela of 1994 " Señora Isabel". It is considered one of the best Telenovelas in the history of the television industry in Mexico. It came a year after TV Azteca's first telenovela, Nada personal and was the first telenovela in that TV station for its five mayor stars, who had been working for the rival station, Televisa, prior to this production. In 2003 the sequel for this telenovela Mirada de mujer: El Regreso was produced. This telenovela can be dated so far as the only TV Azteca telenovela that got the TVyNovelas Award as Best Telenovela of the Year in a shocking moment, making Televisa know to the audience the respect that got over his competitor product as long as the TVyNovelas Awards are only given to Televisa programs. Aside from enjoying wide viewership in Latin America, it was also broadcast in countries like Afghanistan and Israel and Eastern Europe. In India, this was shown by Sahara TV, dubbed in Hindi, under the title of Maria.
