Faruk Turgut said:
“I have signed 74 important productions so far. I have paid money to the actor who deserves it. That’s why my conscience is very clear. Melek Baykal is a valuable theater actress, she constantly receives offers. Nebahat Çehre always rejects the offers. Last time, I asked her to play the grandmother’s role in ‘Kızılcık Şerbeti’, but she did not accept. There is jealousy with many other names. When they do not see demand, they declare someone, usually Hande Erçel, as a scapegoat.”
Faruk Turgut, producer of Erkenci Kuş, commented on Hande Erçel’s acting skills:
“Turkey is discussing Hande’s acting, but when an audience in South America is watching her, they don’t say, ‘How limited is her acting?’ They watch it with admiration. I don’t understand why they’re making the girl a scapegoat. Is Demet Özdemir or the others better? It’s like they’re all giving Oscar-worthy performances, but only Hande is bad! Besides, the girl doesn’t have a lot of money like the others. Everyone should accept that Hande Erçel is the name that guarantees the foreign sales of a series. This means the survival of the production.”
