Que dire sur Engin AK.?
IL EST FABULEUX. TALENTUEUX.. un vrai sucre d’orge, un infini de tendresse, de qualité, d’émotion et de désir! Son sourire est un bouquet de roses rouges, son visage un paysage givré de cartes de Noël, ses cheveux l’onde de la nuit déployant ses étoiles !
Engin, nous offre tout au long du passage un florilège de sentiments retranscrits par son visage, son regard, son attitude tellement son jeu sonne la réalité !
A travers son style personnel et ses résultats exceptionnels, il est l’incarnation même de la performance pure, de l’intégrité et de l’esprit, de la simplicité, de l’amour du partage et du sacrifice et de la liberté !
On le sent tantôt Amoureux, tantôt Heureux, tantôt Furieux. De toute évidence, la puissance et l’énergie qu’il dégage font déjà de lui un protagoniste extrêmement influent et unique !
” IL DONNE VIE A UN PERSONNAGE COMPLEXE, EXCEPTIONNEL et TRES ATTACHANT “!
Jamais un autre Acteur n’avait eu autant d’emprise sur moi ni même FAN. Le 12 Octobre est un jour spécial pour moi aussi, car je suis née le 10/10 et il est un plus pour moi !!!
JE SUIS FOLLEMENT DINGUE DE LUI!!!!! Love, love ENGIN !

I admire your acting, which is sincere and intelligent, so real emotionally that you move my heart. You;ve got great talent and thank you so much for your wonderful creation. God Bless You
Fatmagul just started last month here in Puerto Rico. Love watching different cultures. It is very popular here. Great acting. Engin (Kerim) you have all the women going crazy!!!
Engin we need you have akun on social media your fans miss you a lot
Be proud of yourself and your work engin and tuba enjoy yourself I love you all
I watch kara para ask and I felt it how creative it is .i was really interested with it especially elif and omer even I thought you are couple coz it seams to be really but unfortunately its a movie mashaallah for that may Allah bring you together and create one more beautiful from Kenya
Para Kara Ask is the second Turkish drama -the 1st is Dirilis Ertugrul- which I ever watch, since Turkish dramas aired in Indonesia . I like Elif and Omer very much. They are a perfect couple. Engin, you are a great actor. Tuba too. You both act beautifully. I wish you have great career and family. I wish the same for Tuba and for the other cast in Para Kara Ask.
i agree with Marita every wording, Engin acting is so natural, i am not believe in love, But after watching kara para ask , start in believing unconditional love
Unconditional love for Engin
i am fall in love with Engin watching kalla paisa pyar at Urdu 1 channel or kara para ask at facebook page, owsome , excellent , no word for his acting, cuteness, looks.waiting anxiously for his upcoming drama.
Ideal of my life, great great great fan and lover
Best of luck Engin
Good actor.

May success always be with you inshallah! Ameen!!
Engin Akyurek is one of his kind. First his acting, he can portray a number of emotions with great ease and he doesn’t need dialogues for them his eyes are enough to show his strong emotions. Never for a second did I feel he is acting.When he is acting he puts himself aside and becomes that person. We feel for the character and all are sympathies are for him even if he might be wrong!! Such is the power of his acting.In the few Interviews that he has given one can see how dedicated and passionate he is about his work and he doesn’t talk about silly things. secondly I love his personality Yes he is greedy but not for money or stardom but for characters through which he can prove his wonderful acting skills!! His simplicity, he doesn’t give a damn about the way he looks. he is not a showoff and a very down to earth person.and last but not the least there are many actors who are good looking but not only is Engin good looking he is very charming and captivating too. He attracts you like a magnet. We all are smitten by his charm . I just hope that he keeps entertaining us like this and May he reach greater heights of success Ameen
