HE WAS AN ASTHMA PATIENT

WHO IS RECEP BÜLBÜLSES?

Recep Bülbülses, known as the sorrowful face of Yeşilçam, was born in Mardin. He had been residing in Tokat for a while, and he had suffered a heart attack last July and was treated at Tokat State Hospital.

Bülbülses began his cinema adventure with the 1983 film "Kardeşim Benim". Throughout his career, he became one of the sought-after figures on the silver screen, starring in over 60 productions. Known for films like "Acıların Çocuğu" and "Patroniçe", Bülbülses turned to music due to the changing conditions of the cinema industry. However, as his popularity waned, life became difficult, and the artist had to make a living by singing on the streets for a while. The financial difficulties he experienced during this period were sometimes reflected in the media.

HELP FROM SEDAT PEKER

In recent months, the difficulties faced by Recep Bülbülses had come to the fore again. It was learned that Sedat Peker had made a cash donation of 300,000 lira to the artist. Bülbülses, who was moved by this support, expressed his gratitude by saying, "May God bless our leader, how quickly you heard my voice. May fathers like you always exist. 300,000 lira, I am very comfortable for 5-6 months." Bülbülses also stated, "If it weren't for Yıldız Tilbe and Kerem Alışık, I would die of hunger; I don't want to die on the streets."
