Unknown mysterious stories about the parents of Turkish stars
Turkish series have long enjoyed great attention among numerous viewers. Zamin.uz reported on this matter.
On-screen stars captivate hearts with their charming appearance and skilled acting. However, the family histories behind their fame and success remain a mystery to many.
Today, we will talk about the most famous actors of Turkish cinema and their parents. Although Fahriye Evcen became known worldwide for her famous works such as The Bride and Endless Love, her childhood was very difficult.
Her father, Ramazan Evcen, was a Turkish immigrant who moved from Greece to Germany, while her mother belonged to the Circassian ethnicity. In the 1990s, neo-fascists in Germany treated migrants with great cruelty.
One day, young Fahriye witnessed criminals burning down their house and killing five people. Although her family survived, this event left a deep mark on her life.
Her father Ramazan Evcen passed away in 2020 due to cancer. Kerem Bürsin, on the other hand, became known worldwide for his role in the film Knocking at My Heart's Door.
He moved many times with his family during his childhood. His father, Ibrahim Pamir, was the director of an international oil company, while his mother, Çiğdem, was a housewife and public activist.
When Kerem decided to become an actor, his mother supported him but set the condition that he should not act in cheap and risky films. Although his father was initially against this profession, Kerem started his career in the USA and later achieved great success in Turkey.
Hande Erçel is famous for the series Knocking at My Heart's Door and The Sultan's Daughter. She was born in 1993 in the city of Bandırma.
Her father, Kaya Erçel, was engaged in trade, while her mother, Aylin, was a housewife busy raising their daughters. Hande is the youngest in the family and has always followed in her sister Gamze's footsteps.
Despite her parents' wishes, she entered an art university and began her acting career. Unfortunately, her mother passed away in 2019, and Hande continues to write memorial posts dedicated to her every year.
Emir Tekin is known for the series Secrets of the Fortress and The Unfaithful. Coming from a family of artists, his mother Şevval Sam is a famous actress and singer, while his father Metin Tekin was a footballer.
Emir initially wanted to become a football player but, becoming interested in theater and acting, chose this path. He received advice and constructive criticism from his parents, remains grateful to them, and maintains close relationships with his family.
As seen from the lives of these stars, success behind fame depends not only on natural talent. The support, patience, and willpower of their parents were also important factors.
It is noteworthy that behind every big name stands such simple and heartfelt family support.
