I just watched Karadayi on Netflix. This was the first time seeing Kenan Imirzalioglu in any movies or TV shows. Thought he did a fantastic job playing Mahir. Believe me, when he sat in that chair and cried, I was crying right along with him and when he told Judge Feride that he killed the prosecutor, I jumped up and screamed NO. Loved the show and applause to Kenan for the good job he did. I will be looking for other projects that he has done in the future.
I became a huge fan of Kenan from the first time I watched him. Karadayi will be one of my all time favorites. No one does drama better than you Turkish actors. I no longer watch American television, as it holds no comparison to the superior Turkish productions and writing. Kenan is a true pro at portraying a sensitive man, yet with strength and machismo. I will watch all of his new projects and wish him continued success. He married a beautiful woman and actress as well. I also find her work superior. Much happiness in your marriage.
I agree Deborah…I am watching Karadayi now and after Ezel, I have to say he is my number 1 favorite for all the reasons you list. I have watched hundreds of hours of turkish tv drama and can no longer watch American television because it seems like two dimensional cartoons with no depth of character. Instead the complexity of humanity through the Turkish writers is a breath of fresh air and I can’t get enough of it.
Kenan, thank you. Teşekkürler! You exemplify the power of a smile, of a stern penetrating look, of a glance of inquiry all in a second. Everything has meaning. Life has meaning and your performances are alive with the entire spectrum of human emotion!
IS THERE GOING TO BE A SEQUEL TO KARADAYI? I HATED THE WAY IT ENDED AND WAS SHOCKED? I SINCERELY HOPE THERE WILL BE AND SOON AS I JUST LOVE KENANS ACTING.
it ended pretty well dear.why do you hate it.
Mr. Imirzalioglu I am an 80yr old woman in the United States. I was, in my younger years, an English teacher. I watched Ezel and got addicted to Turkish movies. I am disabled and I have the time to watch these long dramas. And my hat is off to the twisted plots, flashbacks and future forwards, can I say? I saw 4 different futures in about ten minutes and my head was reeling. And the villains. WOW. Fabulous. And you! Your tears are my tears, dear one. I am so disgusted at our American films who use so much sex to make up for plots and just plain good writing to make a film today. And the handling of modesty and respect for privacy of the human body is just unheard of today over here. I pray that your democratic state holds true. I read about those terrorists in your land (and ours) and we must stay courageous. Last, but not least, you are one hunk of a man. ?
Mash’Allah Mash’Allah Mash’Allah!!!!
im from WestAfrica…i was thrilled by your performace when i watched Ezel.I entreat you to keep rising in everything you lay hands on especially in line with ur career…You’re a GENIUS big bro.
Ezel, Karadayi, what a great acting! You are so real in movies than we can forget that we watch the movie. you are so real. you got great charisma(karizma) all eyes are on you
I just want to say that Kenan is on of the best turkish actors I ever have seen! 🙂
