Gönülçelen

Very enjoyable series, you want to keep on watching in till the end!

You only reason I rated it eight stars because it's actually a full 10 star series, because after the first 14 episodes the English translation and closed captions stopped. So the rest of the series you had to just imagine by their facial expressions and body language what the story was about. Please subtitle all episodes in English!

The plot Gonulcelen is about a flower girl from a working-class district of Istanbul, who will later work her way up to a very famous singer.

Both the story and especially the music give a faithful picture of how people interact with each other in a large society on a daily basis. My view after seeing this series is that it is very long-winded, and after a while it gets boring to watch. The continuous turning between Murat and Hacet is boring and dominates the boredom in the series. This story could just as well have been put down in 30 instead of 56 episodes. Not to mention that at the time of shooting this series, a wedding was in prospect between Levent and Hasret. I actually mean to say between Onur and Tuba in 2012. For Tuba's career, her role in this one was a very good entry.

I watched this because I am a fan of Tuba Buyukustun. I really think that she is like Audrey Hepburn and she is like a princess :-)

I love how they always put some real life characteristics of her in her tv series like here her love and support for children as shown in the music foundation for children and I read somewhere that one of her wish is to be a singer ( IWC interview ).

I discovered Cancel Elcin who is so so so charming when he stares at her, nods his head and looks at her and smiles!!!!

I super love the main story of Gonulcelen and I wish they gave more airtime for Murat (Cancel Elcin ) and Hasret ( Tuba Buyukustun ). It started out so well with the main story then their romance, then I found the middle part too long when they were not together :-( I wish they could edit it ( and I am sure this will be a super hit ) and put it on netlfix with the correct english subtitles. - I am a fan from the Philippines :-) and I wish there were more Tuba Buyukustun shows in Netflix.

Great series, I was glad to watch it.. Cobra and Gulnaz made me laugh a lot. Ha-ha-ha.. and I learned a lot from him. I recommend you to watch it, thanks for the work makers.
