Engin Altan Duzyatan, who plays Ertuğrul, told ThePrint in an interview that he is happy to have fans in India. He describes himself as a fan of Bollywood.
When the Turkish actor signed a million-dollar deal with a Lahore businessman, it seemed like Pakistan PM Imran Khan had delivered on his promise. But there was a twist in the tale.
Saudi Arabia has always bailed out Pakistan and given job opportunities. But now Imran Khan’s government is giving it ultimatums and living in a fantasy world.
Be it Hindutva ideologues condemning the wicked foreign invader or Imran Khan hailing Turkish imperial rule, both want to reinforce that going forward means going backward.
To say that Pakistan’s roots lie in India is borderline blasphemy. We are first Arabs or Turks. So it’s not a surprise that Pakistanis have localised Ertuğrul.
IAF is firming up plans to revamp airlift capabilities with medium transport aircraft that will be assembled in India & serve as its main workhorse. Embraer is leading contender as of now.
This is the game every nation is now learning to play. Some are finding new allies or seeing value among nations where they’d seen marginal interest. The starkest example is India & Europe.
Well you don’t have to be a kashmir to like Ertuğrul- or search for ones roots. I am from south and many of us liked and didn’t want to stop watching-watched it 2-3 times all those episodes. Not on Netflix any more.
It’s just the history- old times- people lived and the story behind it- is captivating
We are all mixed races, somewhere some time back then are histories crossed paths
Kashmiri cuisine is familiar but yet not same as turkish one, especially flavors-
.. that’s why it didn’t work lol
Middle Eastern flavors are too mild for the palate of the people of the subcontinent
Minor correction: Diriliş: Ertuğrul is about the father of Osman I.
And largely fictitious. There are like just a couple odd pages about the dude in actual documented history – a historical fiction writer’s playground in the purest sense.
And the show is riddled with problematic messaging about uniting the qoum / ummah, rising up against the threat of the depraved kuffar, and sniffing out internal traitors. Its song in Arabic cheers the revival of (political) Islam dominating the world and the spirit of fighting in the path of Allah, seeking immortality in this world and rewards in jannah (I watched it so you don’t have to).

Kashmiri muslims would be better word. Kashmiri Pandits don’t give a f about any turkish propaganda
