The name of this fatal man is Burak Ozchivit. Our viewers fell in love with the 37-year-old handsome man thanks to the Turkish TV series “Korolek – a singing bird”, “Magnificent Century”. And, of course, they really want to know how one of the most popular Turkish actors lives.
House and “Porsche” for his beloved wife
Burak Özcivit was born in Istanbul to a middle-class family – his father had several cafes with home cooking. When Burak became popular, he continued the family business – he opened his own restaurant called Balibey Doner. The choice of the name is not accidental – the character of Burak in the “Magnificent Century” is called Malkochoglu Bali-bey.
Burak’s path to fame was not fast, but consistent. At the university, he chose the faculty of cinema, fine arts and photography, and since it was difficult to break into movie stars, Burak, having received the approval of his father, began working as a model. For four years, Ozcivit acquired the honorary title of “The Best Model of Turkey”, and also became the second in the “Best Model of the World” competition. The textured guy was noticed and began to be filmed in Turkish films and TV shows. World fame soon came: Burak got the main role in the TV series “Korolek – a singing bird”, he also played one of the key parts in “The Magnificent Century”.
The army of Burak’s fans increased with each new appearance on the screen, but he, to the great disappointment of the fans, turned out to be monogamous. Ten years ago, on the set of the TV series “Korolek – a songbird,” Burak met his future wife, actress Fahriye Evgen, with whose heroine his character twisted love.
The couple started dating later, following filming in another picture. Burak and Fahriye got married in 2017, and in 2019 they had a son, Karan. Burak spoils his wife – recently he gave a house for his birthday, and then he also ordered a chic Porsche for his wife, the cost of which in rubles is equivalent to 25 million.
Burak can afford such expenses, because he is one of the highest paid actors in Turkey. For one episode in the series, the artist receives regarding 250 thousand lire (800 thousand rubles). He does a lot of commercials, owns his own production company. At the same time, the artist speaks extremely modestly regarding the secrets of his success: “This is a case. I believe that it is given to everyone at least once in a lifetime and you should not miss it. I had a chance and I took it.”
Buzova in the restaurant, Borodina in shock
Ozchivit visited Moscow back in those years when he worked in a modeling agency, then he came as a star of TV shows. The actor never tired of being surprised by the Russian cold: “I don’t understand how you tolerate them ?!” This time Burak was lucky – he arrived in Moscow at the end of July and found himself in the usual heat. Burak attended the presentation of the song “Black Love” by musicians Elman and Mona.
That is exactly what – “Black Love” – was the name of the popular series in which Burak played the main role. In the restaurant where the presentation took place, the tables were bursting with treats – Turkish dishes and oysters with caviar. It was possible to purchase tickets for the event and get a table located so as to see the foreign guest well – fans paid 15 thousand rubles for this opportunity.
By the way, Ozcivit was almost two hours late, but the fans were not offended, greeted the artist with joyful cries and even made a crush, trying to take a photo with the idol. For those who got into the VIP zone, it was easier to do this – for example, Dima Bilan was photographed with Burak without too much fuss.
The program of the visit also included a walk around Moscow, during which the actor looked into restaurants. In one of them, a meeting was organized between the Turkish star and Olga Buzova, who took her girlfriend, actress Natalya Rudova, with her to the rendezvous. Olga and Natalya were obviously lucky, because they didn’t have to fly somewhere, but Buzova’s ex-partner at Dom-2, Ksenia Borodina, had to go to Istanbul for a couple of days in June for a chance to take a picture with Ozcivit. Borodina is a fan of Turkish TV series, for three years she was looking for an opportunity to take a photo with Burak, whom she was fascinated with following Black Love.
Ksyusha fulfilled her dream using blogger connections – Borodina got on the set of the series “Foundation: Osman”, in which Burak plays. Borodina admits: “Thanks to the Black Love series, I fell in love with Istanbul and Turkish TV shows. And today, having been on the set, I was in shock … “
