We truthfully didn’t know the extent of his recognition right here in India, till we witness it first hand at FICCI Frames 2023. With followers flocking to him for selfies, it takes plenty of safety and a separate room for us to have the ability to sit down and have a chat with Burak Deniz, some of the widespread Turkish actors. This is his first interview on this a part of the world.
Speaking to us through a translator, it appears clear that he actually doesn’t put on his stardom on his sleeve, as a result of he’s smiling and laughing, as much as meet everybody. “I would have liked to come here to India much before, because I know your culture and like everything about it, it’s unbelievable. I know it deeply, and want to know more. If I wasn’t this busy with the many things I do as a job in my own country, I wanted to spend more time. It’s a big culture,” he strings collectively his feelings.
INDIAN TALES
Best recognized for his exhibits Aşk Laftan Anlamaz, Shahmaran and The Ignorant Angels, Deniz’s eyes gentle up once we point out meals. “I love spicy food!,” he says, however we warn him to go simple, contemplating it’s his first time with Indian water. “Careful yes, safety first,” he laughs.
We ask whether or not he was conscious that he enjoys a fan following (particularly feminine) in India too earlier than really experiencing it, and he quips, “Let’s see, it’s my first time!,” however then will get severe and provides, “Our culture is so similar, so because of that our projects are also in the same plane. Both our projects are full of sensitivity, and hence we understand each other. People here see me as a family member because of it. This is a powerful experience for me too.”
What about Indian films- which one did he watch final? “I forget the names because the titles get changed in my language. But I adore PK, 3 Idiots” he says, and we immediately point out Aamir Khan.
And oh boy, does he get excited sufficient to begin talking in English himself. “Where is Aamir Khan? I hope you are understanding me. I think Aamir Khan is a very big man, not just actor. Please say hi from my side!,” he smiles.
THE WORLD IS A SMALLER PLACE
Emphasising on the necessity for extra coming collectively of varied cultures, Deniz explains, “These kind of organisations like FICCI and such events are important for all sectors. It is so great that I am sitting here and talking about my work. We got to communicate, people can thus have a chance to feel each other, talk face to face. We are all in the same ship.”
We remind him about OTT platforms and streaming websites like YouTube, through which he entered Indian minds. “Globalisation of course, is bringing us closer and closer. It will happen definitely, that the world will become a smaller place,” he smiles.
