From a red-haired angel to the fatal Serkan Bolat: how the Turkish handsome Kerem Bursin changed

Kerem Bursin was born on June 4, 1987 in Istanbul. His mother Chigdem is a housewife and his father Pamir is a manager who has made a career in international companies. No one expected that the boy of these decent people would grow up to be a thief stealing women’s hearts!

From his native Turkey, Kerem moved with his family to Scotland as a child, where he was considered a local due to his fiery red locks. The boy who looked like a real angel grew up to be an open and creative child.

His acting skills showed up quite early – he humorously portrayed people and animals, willingly communicated with people and, above all, easily learned foreign languages ​​and skilfully imitated accents.

In 2002, Bursin Sr. got a new job in Texas, USA. After graduating from high school there, Kerem moved to Boston to study marketing at Emerson College (and even received a degree!), but did not start working in his specialty – acting attracted him much more.

The young Turk moved to Los Angeles in the hope of making a career in cinema, but the competition in the “city of angels” is going through the roof – the future Serkan Bolat even had to earn extra money as a driver so that he could make ends meet and not sit on his parents’ neck. That’s not to say American bosses ignored Kerem’s bright looks. A hulking handsome man with a white-toothed smile, he received job offers and starred in several American TV series and feature films.

Bursin’s first film works did not gain much popularity. However, this is not surprising: for the sake of experience, Kerem agreed to act in films of the low-rent category. With his participation, you can admire, for example, an excerpt from a western “The Razor Man”.

In 2013, Kerem flew from the USA to Turkey for a family vacation: all the aunts, uncles and grandmothers knew that the young man was playing in American cinema, and they were very proud of it. Gaye Sekmen, one of the most famous agents in Istanbul, became interested in Bursin’s success. She offered the young man cooperation, and the very first job that Kerem Gaye found turned out to be a real breakthrough: he played the main role in the series “Waiting for the Sun” and was immediately declared the main new star of the Turkish screen. .

In 2014, Bursin pleasantly surprised fans by appearing in the movie Whisper If I Forget: for the sake of filming, he grew his hair and demonstrated his ability to play the bass guitar!

Needless to say, this wasn’t Kerem’s only appearance with long hair: fans love the potato chips commercials where he appeared as… Mrs. Mary from a children’s fairy tale. Boldly! And very funny!

The premiere of the series “Knock on my door” took place in the spring of 2020 and became a high point for both Kerem and his partner Hande Ercel. The actor in the role of businessman Serkan Bolat immediately climbed to the top of the charts of the sexiest men. The audience was also delighted with the character of the hero – the impregnable snob turned out to be a passionate jealous man! – and from the new image of Bursin.

The Turkish actor turned out to be at the top of his form: his features were no longer boyish (which was helped by the stylish stubble), and the costumes chosen by the costume designers of the series perfectly fit his muscular figure. combining brutality and chic.

In a word, Kerem Bursin literally embodied the image of the dream man of many women! We will see how the future career of the talented actor turns out and whether the role of Serkan Bolat turns out to be a trap for him.
