Alper Saldıran — Biography

Alper Saldıran was born on September 16, 1984, in Istanbul. He first took the stage at the age of five in kindergarten plays, and during his childhood he also pursued folk dance, particularly Caucasian dances. After graduating from a tourism high school, he enrolled in the Tourism Department of Marmara University, where his portrayal of Yusuf in Turgut Özakman's play Fehim Paşa Konağı earned him a best supporting actor award at an inter-university theater competition. He left tourism studies in his second year and moved to the Theatre Department of Yeditepe University on a scholarship in 2005.

His television career began in 2004 with the series Bir Dilim Aşk, followed by Kara İnci, Derman and Melekler Korusun. He made his cinema debut as Fatih Karakuş in Anadolu Kartalları (2011), and his role as Recai in Sağ Salim (2012) made him a familiar face to film audiences. His portrayal of Ömer in Beni Böyle Sev (2013-2015) brought him wide popularity.

He went on to appear in series such as Kalbim Ege'de Kaldı, Aşk ve Gurur, Bir Aile Hikayesi, Masumlar Apartmanı and Aşkın Tarifi, the Netflix production Yakamoz S-245, and the film Cem Karaca'nın Gözyaşları. He has also remained active on stage in productions including Çehov Makinesi and Kürk Mantolu Madonna.

Their work through different eyes

AI-assisted editorial takes on this person's screen work, written from different viewer perspectives. They are not reader comments; those are below.

Series Binger A series devotee tracking character arcs, cast chemistry and season pacing.

Beni Böyle Sev holds Alper Saldıran's clearest series lead: as Ömer Karatepe, a wealthy but modest university student, he carries across seasons a love that begins at first sight with Ayşem, who grew up an orphan. In later years the screen more often placed him as the second man. Murat Işık in Aşk ve Gurur proposes to Zeynep, whom he has loved since childhood, and then watches her turn toward someone else; Uygar Taşdelen in Masumlar is a side link in a story built around the obsessions of the Derenoğlu siblings. The warmth of a romantic lead is still found in Beni Böyle Sev.

Family Viewer Asks whether the whole household can watch it; cares about humor and heart.

As Ömer in Beni Böyle Sev, TRT 1's comedy of a love that begins at first sight, Alper Saldıran sits where parents and children can meet. In Anadolu Kartalları he plays Fatih Karakuş, one of five young officers who want to become pilots; built on training hardships and friendship, the film works for teenagers. Sağ Salim is a road comedy about a villager afraid of the dead who is sent on a journey he never wanted, and its subject makes it better for older children than little ones.
