RESISTOR VALUES which is connected to an AC power

hi friends this is my question😔😔
Suppose if i want to connect a 12 watt bulb in series with a resister, to
home power supply(220v AC,50hz) then what value of resister should
I take(in terms of ohms and power rate) to make my bulb glow at high intensity of light.
answers would be appreciated.

    No need of a resistor. If your bulb is rated for 230V AC, then just ut the bulb to the supply and you will get the max brightness.

    Any other resistor in series will reduce the brightness, because the current through the bulb would drop.
