You will often hear the Ateş Kuşları (Firebirds) series, which attracts millions of attention on Friday evenings and starts with very good ratings, on ATV screens. You will also watch Hande Soral in the series in which very important names such as İlayda Alişan, Görkem Sevindik and Burak Tozkoparan take the lead roles.
The famous actress, who was born in 1987, has been on the sets since 2007. The actress, whom we have watched in very different projects since she attracted attention with the TV series Küçük Kadınlar (Little Women), has become one of the most sought after drama roles.
Hande Soral, whom we watched in very influential projects such as Çalıkuşu, Yılanların Öcü, Diriliş Ertuğrul, and Bir Zamanlar Çukurova (Once Upon a Time Çukurova), has now appeared in front of the audience as the female lead in the ATV series called Ateş Kuşları.
Hande Soral, who played the character named Mercan in the series and started a successful partnership with Görkem Sevindik, said that she decided to return to TV series because of the story of Ateş Kuşları.
Hande Soral, who gave birth to her son Ali in May, is married to actress İsmail Demirci. The famous actress was not expected to return to the sets when her baby was not even 1 year old yet.
Hande Soral explains this situation with these words: “Actually, I did not plan to work for a long time. But I really wanted to be in the project since the day I read the script. The story of street children touched another part of me. I wanted to be one of the people who talked about it.”
Even though she chose to stay at home for the care of her son Ali, Hande Soral, who became close to the series after reading the script, could not remain indifferent to the offer.
The actress expresses her dilemma with these words: “Otherwise, I wasn’t thinking about working for a while because I’m a new mother. I didn’t want to leave the house right away. He even refused to read the script for a long time. When I read the script, I wanted to be in this business.”
Even though Hande Soral did not want to evaluate the offer at first, she accepted the lead role in the Firebirds project with the emotional impact of being a new mother after reading the script.
Continuing to work intensively on the set, Soral also does her best to meet the needs of her baby Ali, and she thinks it is worth enduring this challenge for the series.
