Fazilet Hanim ve Kizlari

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

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!

I like this series because it has two interesting love story for the same actress to the two main actors (Brothers ). It shows very clear cut between the real love and the love of being loved from your first crush . It shows the comparison between both types . Also , it shows how the feeling grow from heating someone to love in him to death and vice versa . Also, it shows unrequited love for the best you could ever see . you will see betrayed , mistakes in raising children , fake love and sacrifice .

Also shows the purity of love without the classic love scenes which minimized in kissing ,sex and other things. It makes you feel to the core without necessary experiencing these classics(maybe little ) But that shows how the writer was genius in crafting the love stories . You have to be patient because the episodes are quite long and the narrative unfold slowly . But What I hate that the production interfered and minimized the lead actors scenes to the minimum , destroyed the beautiful story from episode 44 to the end. Then ended the whole story in episode 50 which was insane and it was doing injustice to the efforts made which made me decide to not watching any things from the production company avsar anymore

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.
