Her reign in the hearts of Pakistanis began when the drama “Love can’t be understood in words” or which was popularly known in Pakistan by name “Pyaar Lafzon Mein Kahan?” was aired on Pakistani Channel Filmazia in 2017.

Those series were aired twice a week which sparked curiosity of viewers and so everyone would anxiously wait for the show. Her co-star Burak Deniz was equally appreciated.

Hande ended up being one of the best turkish actress of many Pakistani girls and boys who found her too cute.

▸ Hande’s Return to Television Screen

3. Hazal Kaya:

Hazal Kaya didn’t gain a new reign over her fans’ hearts like other Turkish film stars; it began when she was just a teenager and portrayed Nihal Ziyagil in the drama “Ishq-e-Memnu” or “Forbidden Love,” endearing her to Pakistani fans. Later on, she also acted in series like “A Girl named Feriha” and “Our Story” through which she continued to conquer fields of love by Pakistani Fans. Hazal is also seen thanking her fans on twitter and facebook. Her role as “Filiz” in “Our Story” is popular as “Fiza Elibol”.

Hazal’s dramas are still airing in Pakistan, she is still in the Favorite list of many Pakistanis. Recently, her drama Misafir (Guest) has aired in Pakistan which made her get more support from her fans.

The actress from Turkey gained fame for her roles in “Forbidden Love” as Nihal, “Our Story” as Filiz (Fiza), “Maral,” “Feriha,” “Nights at Pira Palace” as Esra, and “Misafir” as Gece. Her remarkable acting alongside Burak Deniz in “Our Story” (Hamari Kahani) skyrocketed her fame to the Seventh Sky.

▸ Hazal’s Choice of Relatable Scripts:

It’s understandable that many series like Ishq e Memnu which shows way too elite lifestyle or Kösem Sultan which takes you back in the history are of course not relatable, but the drama Our Story or Hamari Kahani starring Hazal Kaya and Burak Deniz is very relatable for many of us. The story is of a way too middle class family of the poor neighborhood of Istanbul, The Elibol Family. The main character Filiz Elibol, or in Pakistan known as Fiza Elibol, portrayed by Hazal, goes through numerous challenges of daily life.One day, a mysterious man named Bariş (Basit) confronts her, leading her on a long journey of love and hurdles to achieve the goal of a happy family and a loyal partner like Basit.

▸Beren Saat’s Memorable Performance:

Just like Hazal, she has been known for a very long time. The series “Ishq-e-Memnu,” where she played Nihal’s stepmother, brought her fame in Pakistan. Hazal portrayed the role of Nihal. Her poor fate and tragic death in the last episode of the series remain a remarkable memory stamped on the hearts of Pakistani fans. Her acting in the last episode was so emotional that every Pakistani who watched that episode cried badly, and it’s something which I witnessed myself as a small kid back then. Then Afterwards, more of her dramas like What is Fatmagul’s fault, Kösem Sultan (La Sultana) and more kept on airing in Pakistan, which continued to receive great support.
