Yalı Çapkını

When a wealthy Istanbul patriarch decides his grandson needs a wife to curb his reckless ways, he selects a woman from Gaziantep. That plan unravels immediately when Ferit Korhan meets Seyran Şanlı instead. Created by Burcu Alptekin and Gülseren Budayıcıoğlu for Star TV, this family drama ran from September 2022 through April 2025 across three seasons and 101 episodes. The series blends high-stakes romance with sharp social commentary on class divides in modern Turkey. Afra Saraçoğlu delivers a compelling performance as the spirited Seyran, while Mert Ramazan Demir brings charm and depth to the brooding playboy Ferit. Supporting turns from Çetin Tekindor as the stern grandfather Halis and Şerif Sezer as Seyran's protective mother Hattuç ground the story in emotional reality. Audiences responded strongly to the chemistry between leads and the show’s willingness to tackle difficult family dynamics. With an average rating hovering near 8.4, Yalı Çapkını became a major hit during its run.[edit]
