Pets: She has a cat.
Family: She grew up in Ümraniye, Istanbul. Her father is Albanian and her mother is a Thessaloniki immigrant. She has a brother and a sister. When she was 16, her father suddenly died from a heart attack. “I grew up in a loving family. I have two brothers, I am in love with both. I thought I raised my siblings after I lost my father. The house we lived in until the age of six is now among the skyscrapers. It was a two-story house with a garden. I would pick mushrooms with my aunt and look for sorrel. My parents also loved each other very much. That’s why I have faith and hope in love. Because I feel safe, I can find the strength to stand up and continue. Maya is like that. ”
Childhood years: She had a good childhood. Her childhood passed on the fruit trees. “I grew up in a village life in Istanbul. I love football, I used to play football as a kid. I grew up like a boy, I still find myself masculine and even find myself like a street kid. ”
The turning point of her life: The loss of her father is one of the events that deeply affected her life. “We lost my father when I was 16 years old. One of my siblings was 11 and the other five. Some pain does not pass in human life. Fathers should not leave their daughters. Especially early. I lost my father suddenly. He had a heart attack. Such pain shapes a person, of course. I’m sure this has had an effect on my whole life. At the age of 16, I learned the idea that life continues despite such a break. Life goes on somehow. After you don’t die, you have to stand up and start over. I could not understand for a long time that such a thing happened to me. Then you always miss it. There is a huge deficiency. To make up for that shortcoming, all family members have to give more than they normally expect. We experienced the same thing, but it had different effects on all of us. ”
Education life: After completing her education in Mimar Sinan University Art History Department, she studied acting at Müjdat Gezen Art Center.
How did she decide to become an actress? She studied Art History and Acting simultaneously. “I didn’t want to study at the conservatory when I was going to university. I was against traditional education myself. I was a teenager with an anarchist spirit. I thought it was an education that hinders creativity. It was something I made up, but I believed it to the end. I was doing figuration in the State Theaters, but on the other hand. I entered the Müjdat Gezen Art Center, thinking that it should be a place that is not affiliated with YÖK and I will not have to leave my school. ”
First step into acting: She started her television adventure in 1996 with the TV series “Şaşıfelek Çıkmazı”.
With which project did she shine? He drew attention with the character of “Filiz Demir” in the series Parmaklıklar Ardında (Behind the Bars).
Personality traits: Sincere, warm, sympathetic, humble, warlike spirit. “I laugh first, even in the face of pain. Then I decide what to do. Laughter already calms me first. I am not an arrogant person. It can be heard arrogant when you say it like that, though. If I come to the point of losing something I have, I will not get ambitious. He says okay, I go. I fight and fight for the person I love, but I do it in my own moral framework. If I am not wanted, not loved, I do not force things. ”
Mindset: She thinks that knowing oneself is the best thing that can happen in life. “We are always unhappy because we do not know ourselves, we have problems in our job and our relationships. If we know ourselves well, we can find where we went wrong and mature more easily. I think the biggest sacrifice I make for my job is to live a disordered life. After all, the most important thing is human physical and mental health. We are doing a job where the day and night are not known, moreover, it is not a job where you can feel safe. ”
Source of happiness: Making theater and being on the stage is the greatest source of happiness. Theater has a very instructive place in her life. “I think engaging in an art like theater taught me the two most basic things a person should learn. The first is how our need for affirmation guides us in order to feel loved, and second is to pursue things that people will not approve of but that you know to be true, that is, first of all it is necessary to love yourself, to be virtuous and valiant. To be able to empathize when you can think of it through other people. ”
First motion picture: Çağan Irmak / Bana Şans Dile
View of life: I used to have ambitions, but now I don’t give up what I care about in my life in order to achieve something. I just struggle and struggle for what I want to happen. When you were young, you think life is somewhere else. I want to love and love more in life. And that’s all to have fun. ”
Perspective on business life: It has always progressed step by step in business life. He always made his way forward so there is not much to say “this is my turning point”. “Acting is actually putting on someone else’s shoes and walking around with him. If you wear those shoes, you see life with that eye. That’s why the more I am in different characters, the more I enjoy it and learn something. First of all, I don’t understand what the general public understands from the concept of success. For example, making a lot of money, being approved by the masses does not make a person successful. I played both good and bad, but generally contrary characters on the screen. I did not treat any bad character I played as just bad, without depth. I don’t know which one is outweighed, but for me, each one has a different value. “
Career Plan: She loves comedy. Since she is always after laughing in life, she prefers comedy in theater and cinema. “I used to scrutinize projects a lot, now, for example, I don’t do that much. I noticed that. I don’t squeeze too much anymore. But I definitely do not accept anything that might disturb me, that they may have statements other than my ideology or thoughts. ”
Concerns: She finds the censorship on screen alarming. “So I think there is no way of reaching your inner satisfaction from anything you did in this period of time. Because everything is interconnected and there is a terrible state of chaos. It’s an incredible self-control, you know, censorship itself, when we approach with such self-censorship and approach with such fear and anxiety, you can neither do what we want, nor actually give what the receiver wants to see. Actually, I think none of the parties are happy. One cannot be satisfied with such a thing. Because you can’t literally create anything without feeling free. You can’t even talk like that. Because as you go into every sentence, you think it’s misunderstood now. I think we are regressing socially, the conditions were very good in the past and I do not say that we were very democratic. This country has always gone through harsh conditions, but sometimes there were actors who got ahead of something like Yeşilçam cinema, said something fearlessly and bravely, directed things and shaped the social conditions. Now as these are pulled down and we are concerned about saving the day, we stand in place. E that means going backwards. That’s why we have a lot of work.”
About her book: She wrote a book called ‘Kırk Evin Delisi’. She has been writing from a very young age, but she never had the idea to turn what she wrote into a book. “I’m writing, I was thinking why it might concern someone else. When I was younger, I used to think, “Dostoyesvki, Tolstoy wrote, will I write?” Then one day, when a girlfriend of mine by accident reads something I wrote ‘Why don’t you make a book ?! she said. I said, “Who should do what with my book?” He said, “If I saw that he wrote this on the back of a book, I would buy this book.” A wonder fell into me from there. My friend seemed encouraged. We first met with the publishing house and have worked since then. There are 16 short stories in it, fantastic, realist and stories that pass our heads and minds on daily lives. ”
Relationship with nature: She loves nature and animals. “I am an animal lover. When I was little I had a dream to start a farm. I even fed lizards. I was taking monkeys one day almost. Then I gave up. My mother would have killed me. ”
