"I Am Very Grateful to You"

The only actor I have played the same role with. I have never stepped in for another actor in an ongoing job. I am still getting scolded every week saying, if Settar were here, he would do this, if Settar were here, he would do that... But I am very grateful to you. I have come to sit in a very warm place,"
MISS THE SETTING
During the program, Tanrıöğen sincerely shared that he missed "Kızılcık Şerbeti" and his character. The 64-year-old Settar Tanrıöğen responded to Ahmet Mümtaz Taylan's words, "Do you miss 'Kızılcık Şerbeti'? Everyone on the set misses you very much," with the following answer: "I miss 'Kızılcık Şerbeti' and my friends, but the conditions developed this way. It has settled now."
LIVING A RURAL LIFE FOR A LONG TIME
The famous actor, who shared his unknowns, revealed that his main residence is his house in the village and that he moved to Istanbul due to illness. Tanrıöğen stated that he has been living in a village in the Kandıra district of Kocaeli for five years, saying, "I moved there because I wanted to have a space of my own without going too far from Istanbul. There is no close neighbor, there are villagers, and they are 15 minutes away from my house. There is no electricity there; I have solar panels and a generator. But I don't use much electricity. I also go back and forth from there while working," he said.
