Actor Ekin Türkmen recounted that Yılmaz Erdoğan told her, “I have never seen an actor waste their sex appeal so much.” Türkmen also described the veteran actor’s stage performance with the words “as if he were summoning spirits.”

Actor Ekin Türkmen recounted the dialogue that took place between her and Yılmaz Erdoğan on Sibel Arna’s program. Türkmen, who said that Erdoğan frequently teased her about her acting, relayed that the veteran actor said, “I have never seen an actor squander their sex appeal this much.”

“YOU DON’T USE IT AT ALL,” HE SAYS

Noting that Erdoğan jokes that she doesn’t use her feminine charm, Türkmen said, “He says, ‘You’re normally that kind of woman, you don’t use it.’”

“AS IF HE’S SUMMONING A SPIRIT”

Türkmen, who also commented on Yılmaz Erdoğan’s acting, drew attention to his high level of concentration. Saying that when Erdoğan takes the stage he instantly becomes the character, the actor said, “When Yılmaz Hoca acts, it’s as if he’s summoning a spirit. Whatever that character is, he becomes it in an instant and can step out of it in an instant.”
