Şevkat Yerimdar

Şevkat Yerimdar is a good-hearted but hot-headed egg shop owner in Istanbul’s historic Balat district whose life is turned upside down when a wealthy heiress named Pelin crashes her car into his store - an incident that, captured and shared online, thrusts him into unexpected fame and a whirlwind of comic and romantic misadventures.

Directed by Bülent İşbilen, Şevkat Yerimdar leans on a strong ensemble — Özgürcan Çevik, Başak Parlak, Cezmi Baskın — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2013.
