Scandal in the film about Barış Akarsu

Barış Akarsu Merhaba

The careless words cost Aslı Bekiroğlu a lead role in the anticipated film. Who will play the main female role in the movie dedicated to the life of one of the brightest stars of Turkish show business?

Preparations are underway for a film about the famous singer and actor Barış Akarsu, who passed away at the peak of his career, leaving a wonderful memory for millions of fans. Already next week, the film crew of the movie “Hello, Barış Akarsu / Barış Akarsu Merhaba” will begin work in the small Black Sea town of Amasra.

İsmail Ege Şaşmaz will play the lead role in the movie. Aslı Bekiroğlu signed a contract with a production company and was supposed to play the role of the protagonist’s sweetheart. However, during a social event, in response to a question from journalists about how she feels, acting in a film with such a tragic story, Aslı giggled and said: “What can I do, dear, my condolences.”

It should be noted that the Turks express condolences in a more polite form, and such a disregard for the memory of their beloved star outraged the fans of Barış Akarsu. Due to the scandal, the production company terminated the contract with Aslı and signed a contract with Almila Ada, known to viewers from the series “Three Sisters / Üç Kız Kardeş”, where she plays the role of Dönus. She will play a character named Zeynep – the beloved of the protagonist.
