Medyanotu.com / Detay – The Kingfisher series has achieved such a great success on Star TV that viewers look forward to Friday evenings for each new episode. Starring Afra Saraçoğlu and Mert Ramazan Demir, the series was created from another Gülseren Budaıcıoğlu story.
In the story, which is based on the marriage of a flirtatious young man to a young woman determined by the elders of the family, the situation where the woman is not asked what she wants and the elders of the family decide on their behalf. The reflections of this marriage style, which is very common in Turkey, were also the biggest driving force of the Kingfisher series.
Such marriages, which are already experienced in society and have turned into a big problem especially for young girls, are still very common. When it was such an effective story and a real-life story met with the audience, the effect of the Kingfisher series was also great.
Gülseren Budaıcıoğlu, who created the concept of the Kingfisher series by OGM Pictures and contributed to the scripting of the story she wrote, also explained a very important detail.
It emerged with the statements of Onur Güvenatam, the owner of OGM Pictures company, and Gülseren Budaıcıoğlu, that they have very strict rules about casting and that they are trying to win that name after determining who will fit which role.
At this point, Budaıcıoğlu gave an example from the Kingfisher series and said: “For example, we worked hard for the Kingfisher. That’s why we’re so late. Let the right people play these characters. That’s why we were so late, we couldn’t get it out. Because we are waiting for players. Let him finish so he can come to us. We’re not getting someone to replace him.”
Gülseren Budaıcıoğlu talks about Mert Ramazan Demir, the most talked-about young name of the last period as Ferit of the Kingfisher series… Even though he had met for the Kingfisher series during the summer, the young actor had the whole series team wait because there was also a Netflix project called Şahmaran.
After completing his role in Şahmaran, Mert Ramazan Demir, who went to the set of the Kingfisher series and was busy in this process without rest, revealed what a successful choice he was after the series came out.
With these words, Gülseren Budaıcıoğlu stated that Mert Ramazan Demir was specially selected for the role and that they put up with the TV show coming to the screen later than planned in order to win him.
