* We’ve not seen you on the theater for a very long time. And once more, you’re in entrance of the viewers with a comedy. Are you able to speak just a little bit?
Years in the past, I carried out a play known as ‘One thing Occurred to My Son’ by my favourite American humorist Ron Clark and the writer of this play, Sam Bobrick. I used to be searching for such a enjoyable sport once more. Then Kemal (Sayar) talked about this sport. This can be a sport that brings a unique perspective to male-female relations. Regardless that it looks as if a really juicy slapstick comedy… We’re making a variety of charades as a result of. I counted one evening within the play I staged earlier than, and we had been getting about 420 laughs. This can be a very severe quantity. Now we’ll most likely catch him in ‘Loopy Instances’. There are fantastic strains on ladies’s freedom, males’s midlife disaster, gender equality, stability, and the viewers will catch them.
* What points do you care most about women and men?
To start with, I do not like after we males say that “Ladies’s honor is entrusted to us”. What you perceive as honor and what a girl understands are completely different. What the lady calls honor is within the thoughts, within the head, 60-70 centimeters above what you perceive. Issues like labor, morality, honesty, love, respect for nature, respect for folks, respect for labor… Sadly, a girl begins to be revered solely when she turns into the mom of a person’s little one. I give wings to anybody I really like. Go, fly, journey, wander… If you happen to desire me regardless of that, it has worth. The best present an individual may give to his family members, together with his youngsters, is freedom. In case you are assured, set your family members free. If he is nonetheless with you then that is fantastic. But when he’s with you due to one thing, verify your self and go to a therapy.

“No, let him open his eyes and see me.” That is man’s insecurity. “What if he would not like me, would not do what I say, or leaves me…” As a result of he would not belief himself. If it is deserted, it is over, man. I do not wish to be depending on a girl. I do not wish to love him as a result of he does my laundry, irons, cooks, takes care of me… food I do, I iron, I do laundry, I sew splendidly… I’ve all the time been like this.
* Had been you actually all the time like this in all 5 marriages?

class=”medianet-inline-adv”>
* Each time I watch ‘The place are you Firuze’, I nonetheless take a look at you and smile…
That is my view on performing. For instance, in ‘O Hayat Benim’ I play the dangerous man, I am a troublesome mafia boss. Right here is my try on the collection: “Let’s take the gentleman to the grave,” I say. He’ll bury the person alive, however it’s as if he’s inviting him to the dinner desk… The character in ‘The place are you Firuze’ was not precisely a personality written like that.

Aegean olive oil is just a little drier.
Cinnamon is added to the slap roll. A bit of garlic… I all the time put three herbs; dill, parsley, mint. I additionally add the mint to the meat wrap, it is rather good.
