Fazilet Hanim ve Kizlari

This series is different from the rest that we're used to. It presents so many different aspects of life - social status, love life, family life...in a serious and real way. I would say that it's more real than any other. The cast is amazing, as well as their acting, that made me cry so many times, but also laugh. Definitely recommend it, since I've watched it three times and every time I was blown away by how good it is and how many emotions it unravels in me. If you're thinking that it's just another Turkish drama, you're so wrong. Please give it a chance!

If I am not mistaken, I found this drama when I am looking at works of Deniz Baysal. Yeah, the title is not so engaging, but once you let yourself to seat and start watching the dizi, you will certainly be intrigued by the story it offers. At first, I don't know that the main couple is Yagiz and Hazan, as the summary of this movie I found on Google was not even mentioning Yagiz' name. But, when I look at Yagiz, who is portrayed by Caglar Ertugrul, I was directly attracted and voted for him to be the male lead.

I thought this drama conveys more about family, betrayal, trust issue, brotherhood and mental health than romance. You know, the main couple doesn't even have "couple-time" like any other screen couple we're so used to watch in dramas. Their only moment as a couple can only be watched at the end of the episodes, that is at the episode of 50, for only a few seconds!

Nevertheless, the writer does a brilliant work at how she/he draw the relationship between Yagiz and Hazan, how beautifully (and painfully) the two grow their feelings. What does it mean by loving someone truly, you're not only care about the one you love, but also at her family. Yagiz is an exceptional character that will mesmerize every woman with his outstanding personality.

With a title like Fazilet Hanim ve Kizlari, you can bet an international viewer like me would not be enthusiastic about this series. Seriously the producers should look at how they name their work. But I am thankful I listened to my online watch party recommendation and watched it. Is it good? Well the story is about the evil that resides in human hearts and how easily people give in to it. So its a difficult watch-- there is a lot of stress, characters undergo really horrible experiences and the viewer at times feels totally exhausted by the ugliness the characters show-- esp Fazilet Hanim, Selin and Sinan. But in the midst of the darkness, the character of Yagiz stands out like a brave little candle fighting the wind and with every episode grows brighter and brighter till the end it just suffuses your heart with light. The story is uplifting because Yagiz keeps our faith intact. As humans, we believe that good will prevail and evil will be vanquished; that love will be rewarded and hatred punished. Honestly, in this show , Yagiz is the character which sustains your faith in goodness. The actors are all very good. Esp the actor playing Selin, comes across as a really despicable yet vulnerable girl. Hazan is played very nicely by Deniz and she brings a wholesomeness to her role. Her smile lights up the darkness in the story. The actor playing Fazilet is too loud and almost caricaturish -- she makes you hate her. Sinan is really the most weak actor. He doesnt manage to convincingly portray the character at all. The best for the last-- Caglar Ertugul-- words fail at the sincerity with which Caglar has played the character of Yagiz. His intensity, his way of conveying hurt through his eyes, his meaningful silences-- its like poetry. I pray Caglar gets really good projects because he has the potential of being the hottest star on the Turkish entertainment world. Also kudos to the beautiful intense love story between Yagiz and Hazan. How difficult it is to love someone who is your brother's beloved? How beautifully the moral struggle is captured. Out of all the dizis I have watched, really this story of Yagiz and Hazan stands at the top as the best most poignant love story, along with Cesur ve Guzel My advice is that the story is too dark but watch it for the beauty of what one single good man can do to a sea of banal evil. I give it 10 stars only for Caglar and the character of Yagiz. Watch it for the love story of Hazan and Yagiz

The plot lines of this series is a very interesting one over all it is constructed so well if we think of Turkish standers. The story starts with fazilet a mother of two daughter who seeks to gain fortune and to settle her daughters well in life of course for doing that she followed the principles of "ends justifies the means". Fazilet is a very interesting character with her there is no such thing called predictability you think you know her, but really you don't know her. Second major character in the show is Yagiz Egemen, this character is the name of prince charming we always dreamt of having. Yagiz is written like a poem or a piece of an art work .You find yourself loving him step by step in this show and learning every line he is saying by heart. I don't want to enter in details of his plot line because of spoilers and because you need to get to know him step by step and episode by episode. Finally, the writer of this series is different from other Turkish writers she does not give the audience what they want and she follows only her story, stubborn woman who you can not pressure with rating or social media or anything. She is saying out loud I am in control for people who respect that, you will like this show.

Wow, just wow. All the character performance are make me very emotional and affect us much. This drama can be categorised as spanish level soap opera. Well, the storyline are sometimes absurb and make us very angry with the villain character. Kudos to the writer for making this fantastic drama.
