Family: His full name is Mustafa Yiğit Kirazcı, he was born to an accounting manager mother and an outdoor advertising father. “My mother is from Ören; They migrated from Lesbos. My father was born in Xanthi. My grandfather’s roots are from Niğde, but my father has never been there. My mom and dad met at university and fell in love. I did not have a traumatic childhood. My mom and dad are still together. Even if they fight, they wouldn’t let me know, it still is. My father is more materialistic, my mother is more spiritual. ”
Childhood years: He had a good childhood as the only child of a wealthy family, but he had a hard time during his adolescence due to his father’s sudden illness. “My father was an outdoor advertiser; One billboard from the first names that Turkey was a successful business man. My mother was an accounting manager. My mother was wealthy from her family, but after she married my father, she did not take anything from her family. Despite this, my dad earned well enough. But things suddenly changed. When I was 17, my father had a stroke. All of a sudden. She was in a coma for two months and then did not recover. We played tennis two days a week, we played basketball together on both days, but then everything turned upside down. We tried everything; physiotherapists, pilgrims, professors, but it did not improve. We entered a very difficult period economically with my father’s illness. We tried to close the company but there were debts. I did not go hungry, but we had difficulties. ”
Education life: He completed his high school education in Koç High School. He graduated from Bilgi University Communication Faculty Advertising Department. He also received acting training.
The turning point of his life: He describes his father’s stroke and what he experienced afterwards as “the biggest trauma of his life”. “Those around him when he’s rich disappear on his bad day, I experienced it to be true. People’s behavior towards me has changed. I got off the horse and got on the donkey, but it was good in a way. Life also teaches the biggest lessons in such breaking points. That’s when I found my truth, I started getting to know myself. I won the advertising department at Bilgi University with a scholarship. My father is called an advertiser. I realized that the job I want to do is not advertising; I will not be able to rest my head on the pillow, even if I am lying. And I realized that it will be very important for me to make a living on the job I love. I graduated, but as soon as I realized that advertising was not my job, I started taking philosophy classes and studying psychoanalysis. I started meditation and yoga. I paid great attention to inner enlightenment; I’m still trying to get to know myself. I was modeling; I started working with good brands over time. Then I met a teacher. I took acting lessons from him for two years and worked as an assistant for four years. I also acted in front of the stage and the decor. I was determined to educate myself in theory and improvisation. ”
The first step to acting: He started his television adventure with the character “Teoman”, which he played in the Son Tercih (Last Choice) series in 2007.
With which project did he shine? He drew attention with the character of “Tuna Ertürk”, which he portrayed in the “She Was Pretty” series.
Personality traits: Funny, energetic, kind, hardworking, idealistic, sympathetic.
Personal development: He did not study acting, but after graduating from university, he took two years of lessons in a private theater, then worked as an assistant there for 4 years. “I made a theater director, played in a theater play. Then I tried to learn this job thoroughly. Then I studied psychoanalysis Erich Fromm, I read Jacques Lacan. I studied behavioral psychology. Why does a human behave? What is impulse, motivation, action? What does moving physical motion mean? How is there a whole world of difference between eating something when I’m hungry and eating when I’m angry? I looked for answers to these. Wherever you focus your attention and where you want to expand, life brings it to you. After a while, there is selectivity in perception. ”
Mindset: ‘He hates arrogance. He believes that it should get smaller as it grows. “We are as fine as dust in the universe. I hate arrogance. Being famous sounds good to people who are not famous. The sound of the drum is pleasant from afar. Not all celebrities live super happy lives. Making being famous a goal makes you unhappy; I avoid that. If you do your job well, reputation will pay off. ”

Look at love: “The most important thing in a relationship; Behaviours. Whatever your words are, what matters is their behavior. I say, “I am a number 10 5 star man, asphalt nets are such a great guy” but it is empty as much as I can explain. You have to spend time with me. You can know me by my behavior, not by what I say. I am a romantic person in my relationships. Thin, I expect delicacy. I am not talking about the big things, the simple subtleties of curling the sleeves of a shirt you are wearing, squeezing the napkin under the plate while you are eating. In short, kindness in the soul is important to me. ”
His view of life: The most important life information he learned from this life is, “If you believe in yourself and work, life will give you what you want” If you say “What have you understood from this life so far?”, I think the universe works with faith and intention. If you believe in yourself and try and persevere, things start to fall into place. There are still a lot of things I haven’t figured out. How the brain works, how human consciousness is, aliens, time, other galaxies, the universe at the macro and micro level, and there are a lot more things that I cannot think of right now. The more one learns, the less he realizes how little he knows. You can’t choose your family but I choose my friends. I pay attention not to how he treats me, but how he behaves when he is not followed, how he treats people he is not obliged to behave well with. Because at this point family upbringing and conscience emerge and are important. I also have more empathy for people. ”
His view of business life: He loves acting. Since he believes that by envious of someone else’s potential, he cannot reach his potential, all he has to worry about is himself. “Ercan Kesal said in an interview:“ If I act, I would be a big disgrace. ” I also work not to pretend. When you don’t act, you become that character, and that’s something very special. I also like the set environment. You have to be crazy to love the set though. I love the screen, the theater, in short, acting. Acting is a schizophrenic situation for me. I’m not acting, I’m trying to be that person; This should not be done just for money either. There is only one method not to pretend: to be the character you play. That character becomes his own feelings, belief mechanism, idea. It may not resemble Yigit’s at all, Yigit may not like him. ”
What would he do if he wasn’t acting? He could have been a game programmer. “I don’t have a B plan to be honest. Because I see myself in the lucky few who do what they fall in love with, and I’m always grateful for it. ”
Career plan: He wants to play characters who have troubles. “There is a problem that he tells in the whole script, you know, I want a character who has a problem to color that whole. “
Dream of the Future: He wants to be permanent in his profession and thinks that it is necessary to work continuously without stopping. “Nobody told us that everything will be fair at birth. There is no justice in nature anyway. This is a very strange point; People put a lot of effort, schools are read, but the result does not meet the effort. On the one hand, there is impatience. It is necessary to look at what the majority is in general. Everyone is impatient, everyone wants things to happen quickly. I wanted it to be like that when I was young. I wanted me to be famous, I wanted to play a leading role in the TV series. I haven’t tried it. I thought why isn’t it happening. I thought I should study diction, study articulation, know behavior, understand behavioral psychology. I realized that I was very lacking. The more I work, the more I lack. This tendency is very natural, but being permanent is achieved by constantly working. ”
Role model: Sadri Alışık.
The criterion of attractiveness in women: He finds intelligent women attractive. “It must be a smart individual, and of course whatever hormones say. I admire women like me. Not for women who mold to be appreciated. ”
What does it spend money on? He is careful to save with some of the money he earns. “I make a lot of money. More than I could ever spend. But I do not waste the money, because if I do not have a money problem, I will not need to take part in a project that does not satisfy me in the future. ”
