BEREN SAAT TO TOPLINE
TV SAGA ON 17TH CENTURY TURKISH 'KOSEM SULTANA'
One of the most watched shows around the world, lavish and intricately written Turkish historical saga THE MAGNIFICENT CENTURY on Sultan Suleyman and his wife sultana Hurrem ended for good last week after jawdropping 139 two hour long episodes and four years of airing, but as I told you before Tims Production, who made the show, are ready for another one: in September 2015 they will start airing KOSEM SULTANA epic show and you can watch the first teaser below. It is just a promo teaser, the actors haven't been chosen so far and the shooting hasn't begun yet either. But there are rumours from Istanbul that the lead role will go to Turkish star Beren Saat!
DEZZY'S HISTORY LESSON
Kosem Sultana, also known as Mahpeyker Sultana (the name means Moon Shaped), was one of the most powerful women in Ottoman history, favourite wife of Ottoman Sultan Ahmed I from the early 17th century. She achieved power and influenced the politics of the Ottoman Empire through her husband, then through her sons Murad IV and Ibrahim I and finally through her grandson Mehmed IV. She was a prominent figure during the Sultanate of Women (which started with the rule of Hurem Sultana). She was official regent twice and was thereby one of only two women to have been formal rulers of the Ottoman Empire. She came to the sultan's palace in Istanbul as a 15 year old slave girl, but quickly became influential in the harem. It is believed that in the end she was killed by her own daughter in law, sultana Turhan, because she wanted to put another of her grandsons on the throne. Kösem was renowned for her charity work and for freeing her slaves after 3 years of service.
