Asena Keskinci says she felt at home on the Kızılcık Şerbeti set right away, even though she joined later.
Asena Keskinci took over Çimen from Selin Türkmen in the fifth season of Show TV's hit series and has been on screen since the new season began on 18 September. Remembered as Yağmur in Bez Bebek and most recently in the spotlight with HBO Max's Jasmine, the young actress sat down with Gece Muhabiri.
Asena Keskinci compared the set, where the same team has been working together for years, to a family, and said she goes to work with a different kind of excitement every day:
'It was already a set like a family, and I became part of it. I'm actually very excited. Every day I go there feeling a different kind of excitement.'
What excites Asena Keskinci most is being part of a series she had been watching for a long time. She said that being able to read in advance the scripts of a show she already watched and liked means a great deal to her.
Young viewers knew Asena Keskinci before; now older fans stop her on the street to congratulate her.
The most striking part of the interview was about her changing fan base. Asena Keskinci explained that she had always appealed to a younger audience and that Kızılcık Şerbeti changed this picture:
'I always used to appeal to a younger crowd. Now, of course, aunties and uncles on the street come up and congratulate me too.'
The actress likened this to being welcomed into the families watching at home. After years of being seen as a 'friend' by young viewers, Asena Keskinci said she is now embraced as the family's daughter as well, and that this makes her very happy:
'I feel like I've become part of those families. I mean, I'm the family's daughter now. I used to be more of a friend; now I've also become the family's daughter.'
In the first weeks of the season, Asena Keskinci had said she found it completely natural that some viewers had not yet got used to the new Çimen. About two months after taking over the role, she is now talking about the reaction she gets on the street.
