Furkan Andıç: “I have been in the profession for almost 15 years. When I look back, I notice that the more I thought about my performance on stage, the further I moved away from the truth I wanted to convey. Over time, as you gain experience, you get rid of such habits. Every moment you try to control a creative action becomes your weakness. Perfectionism slightly ruins the pleasure of the process. Is the destination you strive for more important, or are the events that happen along the way? For me, the process is essential. In acting, this means letting go, accepting everything that happens, and even forgetting your partner’s lines to focus entirely on their reaction. This helps make your own reaction truly unique.”

Kerem Alışık, when asked, “What kind of father do you think you were to your son Sadri?” replied: “My son and I discover all the beauties of the world together. As the saying goes, ‘A father is like a plane tree, even without fruit, its shade is enough.’ And yet, ‘A child is like a flower, even if not nearby, its scent is sufficient.’ For a father, watching his son grow and become a good person is a unique life experience. I look at Sadri with pride. He is my poem, my taste, my salt, my sleep, my dream, and my family in one.”
