Famous actress Sevda Erginci gave life to the character of Zeynep in the Yasak Elma (Forbidden Apple) series for two seasons. She and Onur Tuna, her partner in this series, were the subject of jokes on social media because of their height difference. Both actors were responding to the situation with their witty remarks.
However, the height difference between the two actors was so great that it drew attention in many scenes. Inevitably, the audience was obsessed with this situation. When the subject was asked frequently, Sevda Erginci said that she was bored with this subject.
In the end, both players took care of the situation with humor. Onur Tuna also responded to her partner’s pointing out by saying “Love is not short, I am tall”. Sevda Erginci is 1.59 meters tall. But her bad luck is that they always have tall partners!
When the difference grows, there are situations that inevitably attract attention. During the scenes, Sevda Erginci has to act on the chock. Hazal Kaya also jokes about the situation by telling from time to time that she uses wedges in similar situations.
Sevda Erginci is currently partnering with Ekin Mert Daymaz in the new summer series of TRT1 screens, Seni Kalbime Sakladım (I Saved You For My Heart).
Two actors come to the screen with the characters Civan Mert and Zeynep. There are also some remarkable scenes due to the height difference of the two leading actors of the series being 33 cm.
However, the situation is saved with solutions such as adjusting the camera angles and putting wedges under Sevda Erginci’s feet. Erginci lives with Onur Tuna in the TV series Yasak Elma (Forbidden Love), this time with Ekin Mert Daymaz in Seni Kalbime Sakladım.
The two actors drew attention with their humorous posts revealing the situation. Sevda Erginci drew attention to the height difference between her and Ekin Mert Daymaz and shared a photo of a wedged stage shoot, making her followers laugh…
Sevda Erginci is 1.59 cm and her partner Ekin Mert Daymaz is 1.92 cm. Erginci’s post with the note “Those photos are taken like this” made the audience laugh.
In an interview with Hürriyet before, the actress explained about the height difference with her partners, “There is such a thing as wedges, they put them under my feet, and now I have learned to walk with them in every scene.”
The actress also added that her partners lowered their height by opening their legs a little while the scenes were being shot, “So if my partner and I are happy with our game and with each other as human beings, it’s okay. Plus, I didn’t say that I’m going to be on the podium with my height of 1.59. I said I’m going to act. He also revealed that he doesn’t care about the height issue by saying, “No one except me, but I love my height very much…”
