Let's delve into this together.
First gaining attention and a solid core fan base with his role as Necip Yilmaz in 'Kollama,' the seasoned actor made his big leap with the unforgettable character of Takoz Irfan in 'Suskunlar.'
With his cool gaze, stern yet profound demeanor, and tension-elevating performances in every scene, Mehmet Özgür has since become one of the first names that come to mind when one thinks of a 'character actor.'
Currently gracing the screen in ATV's new series 'Gözleri KaraDeniz' as the character Osman Maçari, Mehmet Özgür also made an appearance last night at the premiere of the series 'The Eighth Family', written and directed by Ali Atay, and co-starring with renowned actors such as Haluk Bilginer, Serkan Keskin, and Hazal Kaya.
As always, Mehmet Özgür caught everyone's attention with his dignified demeanor, but he also shared a heart-wrenching detail about his warm family life that no one knew about until now.
Among the known details about his private life, it's known that Mehmet Özgür has been married to Safinaz Özgür for 20 years and they have a son named Başar Arhan. It's also known that their son decided to follow in his father's footsteps and went to England to study acting.
'I lost a child back in 2005. There's an umbilical cord connection here. I always carry him close to my heart. Now, God has blessed us with another child, and I carry him in my heart as well. That's the story,' he said.
The reporter, visibly moved, embraced Mehmet Özgür, then commented, 'What a wonderful man you are, brother.'
