Habib Mustafa, set manager of the Afghan game show Ganjina, and other production crew members take a break after the taping of an episode November 28, 2010 in Kabul, Afghanistan.  The game show, inspired by the American hit Deal or No Deal, has become one of the most popular shows in Afghanistan, giving contestants the opportunity to win one million Afghanis (approximately US $22,200).  It has also been a source of controversy as some religious conservatives view the show as gambling and therefore against islamic principles.
