I have strong friendships from that period. Whenever I think of those days, they always seem rosy to me. I took part in theater plays as a child, and this enthusiasm within me started with theatre. When I was in high school, I always took the lead when a play was to be staged, and Teacher Figen even told me that if I continued on this path one day, I could reach a great place. She believed in me very much, so I continued with this motivation, but I was also very talented at pencil drawing, and my father wanted me to utilize this talent.

She likes to be in the spotlight. She is excited and energetic. “I am a person who looks at everything very positively. I always try to see the glass half full because if I see it half empty, it will reflect on my life. Of course, there are times when I feel down, but then I find something to motivate myself.”

She thinks that it is necessary to always improve herself, but she believes that acting comes from the heart. “Education should combine with the feelings in your heart. Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University means vision for me. Fine Arts is already a place specific to people with different perspectives. The moment I entered there, I saidShe thinks that the most exciting part of being famous is being in the spotlight. “I like being in the spotlight because when you are in the spotlight, you can explain yourself to more people. People can see the goodness and beauty in your heart. “This tells people what kind of person I really am and how I love my job.” to myself, ‘Yes, I belong here.’ “You learn to look at life from different perspectives. You see aesthetics.”

She thinks that the most exciting part of being famous is being in the spotlight. “I like being in the spotlight because when you are in the spotlight, you can explain yourself to more people.

“Of course, there is logic in love, but it gets disabled somewhere. When the heart wants it, no matter how much you object, you can’t help it. You have to do what your heart wants. “I can’t fall in love easily.”

She is going through a period in which she rediscovers her life. “I feel like I’m at the beginning and the end of life. I’m at a time when I slow down and think more. I have questions, and I’m not rushing for answers. I enjoyed experiencing and learning by living. There has been a period in recent years when I have completely changed. While I could not stop myself before, now even I am surprised at the level of serenity I have reached. I used to be more extroverted, but now I’m a bit introverted. I also enjoy it. This was not a goal for me, and it developed this way naturally. However, I do not think that sometimes there is a premature cessation.”

She says she is working like crazy to make the point she has reached permanent. “I work really hard. To always improve, to always go further. I aim to walk a long way with small and firm steps. The only way to do this is to work. I have not yet fully discovered where my passion for my profession comes from. But I know that I love exploring different worlds as someone else. Gunesin Kizleri, Selin’s character, is my breaking point in my career, my transition from calmness to the crowd. I don’t like to be in the spotlight, never in the sense of ‘Everyone should look at me. All the attention should be on me. On the contrary, I am reluctant on this matter. For me, being in the spotlight means inspiring. My connection with people has always been strong. It’s just, ‘Why shouldn’t I connect with more people?’.

There are countless characters she wants to play. She would love to act in a movie like ‘Maleficent.’ Working with Çağan Irmak in the future is also among her goals. “If I want something, I don’t give up until I get it. Life has always given me what I wanted so far. On the one hand, it’s luck. On the other hand, it’s talent, but I think it’s also about dedication. “I will continue like this from now on, and everything is for myself.”

Goals regarding acting: She wants to see herself in movies more and understand what she can and cannot do. “It could be a drama movie, for example. “I would also love to reprise the role played by Natalie Portman in ‘Black Swan.'”

There are many actresses she likes, but she loves Anne Hathaway’s unchanging naturalness. “My admiration for her never diminishes, thanks to the state of being she always creates in every character.”

She describes strong and successful women as ‘beautiful’. “She is a woman who stands on her feet and knows how to say ‘no’. First of all, a woman must have an attitude towards life. This attitude adds beauty to her. Her perception of the man in front of her adds beauty to her. Success should not be enough for a woman. She should always want better. I think it’s all in the beauty. Beauty is not just about appearance for me. This stance and way of thinking is much more prominent.”

Being positive and looking at the world in a positive way.

She can get upset about some things unnecessarily, and she wants to diminish this trait.

She does not prefer to wear something that she sees as ridiculously fashionable. She prefers to wear what suits her. In daily life, she loves skinny jeans, boyfriend jeans, and mini straight dresses. “I don’t wear high heels much. I rarely wear them, but I love jewelry. Jewelry is always more important than my clothes. I love black and nude tones. “I don’t like multicolored things, even fluorescent colors.”

She really likes Natalie Portman and Penelope Cruz.

She is doing stretching. If she finds time, she goes for a massage. “After having a massage in Thailand, I guess I don’t like the massages here very much. I wish I could get a massage there all the time. Thailand is a very different culture. Its people are very happy. Women are very strong. Their self-confidence is very high.”

“There is one conclusion I draw from the fact that many people follow me and are interested in me. People love to see what they are curious about. They want to see that you are approachable and say, ‘She is actually just like me.’ Social media has always been a communication tool for me. It still is. This growth is directly proportional to my desire to inspire those whom I cannot see but whose existence I know.”

Drawing. “I started drawing after seeing my sister. Gamze would come home from the workshop very happy, which caught my attention. I went to the workshop with her and when I took the pen in my hand, I saw that it was a place where I could reflect on my own world. It was very different from the lessons at school. I was free. I have been drawing ever since. I am also thinking of opening an exhibition soon. Artists whose drawings I like are Salvador Dali, Ergin İnan, and Mihri Müşfik Hanım.

‘The Favourite’ and ‘Hotel Mumbai’ are her favorite movies. Lately, she likes to watch true stories. But her favorites are always fantasy movies and animations. The first movie he watched as a child was ‘Ant Z’.
