One of the unforgettable names of Turkish cinema, Salih Güney, was captured by the cameras in Nişantaşı. The 80-year-old master actor announced that he has been diagnosed with COPD as a result of his long-standing smoking habit.
Hülya Avşar, Müjde Ar, Sibel Can, Gülşen Bubikoğlu gibi isimlerle onlarca aynı projede yer alan Yeşilçam'ın usta ismi Salih Güney, önceki gün Nişantaşı'nda görüntülendi. 80 yaşındaki oyuncu, doktor muayenesine gittiğini belirterek KOAH (Kronik Obstrüktif Akciğer Hastalığı) teşhisi aldığını açıkladı.
"I HAVE BREATHING PROBLEMS"
The master artist attributed the cause of his illness to his long-standing smoking habit, saying, "I have breathing problems because I used to smoke a lot. COPD started 5-6 months ago. My advice to smokers is; don't smoke. Recently, at a ball I attended, a doctor called me, and now I'm going to him. Actually, I had quit, but I can't resist after dinner. I've been smoking for 60 years."
"YEŞİLÇAM LOVES EACH OTHER"
According to Hürriyet's news, Güney, who is one of the prominent figures of the Yeşilçam era, stated that he still maintains relationships with his old friends, saying, "When we meet, we pick up where we left off. I still see Nebahat Çehre and Hülya Avşar. We are fewer in number, but Yeşilçam loves each other. There is neither jealousy nor disrespect, that's why it's legendary. I have no grudges against anyone."
