The Elkızı series, broadcast on Fox TV screens on Saturday evenings, impressed the audience with its story… The series, starring Sevda Erginci and İsmail Ege Şaşmaz, is especially followed by female audiences. The reason for this is that the character named Ezo exhibits a strong female stance.
The fact that many viewers, who want to see strong women on the screen, attach importance to Ezo’s story, made the ratings of the series above average. Intensive work is being done on the set of the series, which continues to be shot in Muğla.

The interview with the famous actress Sevda Erginci about the Elkızı series was also shared by Fox TV. Here are the statements of the famous actress:
The “Elkızı” poster was highly appreciated and aroused great interest. Does the red dress on your poster have a special meaning?
The red dress belongs to Ezo’s mother. She wears her mother’s clothes to keep the memory of her mother alive despite the pressure of her family…
We are watching you with the character of Ezo. Ezo is a character who was orphaned at a young age due to the death of her mother and misses her mother very much. She was also humiliated by her father and ignored by her grandmother. What kind of story awaits the audience in the upcoming episodes?
As you said, the only person who values and loves her in her life is her mother, and when she loses her terribly, Ezo suffers a great destruction and is brought up with humiliation, violence, anger and hatred. We will be watching Ezo’s revenge, her transformations, the wrong decisions she made with inexperience because she was involved in life for the first time, hre struggle to stand strong alone, with the pain of all these years.
“EZO AN ANTI-HERO”
What kind of reactions do you get from the audience about the character Ezo? Did the audience like or support this character?
Ezo is an antihero. That’s my favorite part. It’s not a one-dimensional good or bad character. She is a real character with her transformations, breaking points, mistakes, truths, weaknesses and strengths. That’s why I think it’s easy to empathize and understand. I think the audience also understands and loves Ezo.
“CRYING MANY TIMES IS VERY TIRING”
We saw that Ezo was always in tears in promotions and episodes. Is it tiring to cry a lot in front of the camera, does it force you?
This is just as tiring as when we normally cry. And when you have to do it over and over, it becomes even more tiring. But it definitely worth!
Is it true that you cut your hair for the character Ezo?
No, I voluntarily cut it before I started this project. I always liked short hair better, but there was no opportunity. But I think it is very suitable for Ezo. Good thing I cut it in this project.
Well, while preparing for the character of Ezo, did you add anything from yourself to her?
Is it possible that the actress did not add anything to the character she played? Of course, there is a whole team that created it, but the actress is the voice, eye, breath of the character…
