Nesrin Cavadzade — Biography

Nesrin Cavadzade is an actress born in Baku who came to Turkey as a child and is known for award-winning film performances and for television series such as Yasak Elma and Üç Kuruş. She has won at the Golden Orange in both the supporting and the leading category, and now plays Şebnem Akkaya in the series Daha 17.

She began with stage training. After graduating from the Cinema and Television department of Marmara University she spent two years with Şahika Tekand's Studio Oyuncuları. Right after her lead in the series Yersiz Yurtsuz, she starred in Dilber'in Sekiz Günü, the second film of Cemal Şan's Love Trilogy, and won best actress at the Erzurum, Bursa and Ankara film festivals for it. In 2011 she played Anna in Güzel Günler Göreceğiz, which earned her best supporting actress at the Golden Orange and best actress at the Ankara International Film Festival. In 2014 she won best actress at the Golden Orange for Kutluğ Ataman's The Lamb; the same year she appeared in Song of My Mother, and then in Son Mektup.

On television she made her name with Samanyolu, Al Yazmalım and Kara Leyla in Ağır Roman Yeni Dünya; she played Şahika Ekinci in Yasak Elma from 2019 to 2021, followed by Üç Kuruş (Bahar), Şahane Hayatım and Sandık Kokusu. Besides Turkish she speaks English, French, Russian and Spanish. She married in May 2026.

Their work through different eyes

Cinephile Looks at script, editing and directing choices; keeps a distance from formula films.

Nesrin Cavadzade's rise in cinema reads as a line from supporting part to lead: Anna in Güzel Günler Göreceğiz brought a supporting-actress prize, and Medine, the center of Kuzu, a best-actress award. Kutluğ Ataman's film carries a single worry, a young mother trying to find a lamb for her son's feast, and in that narrow space a great deal falls to the acting. In my view Cavadzade shows to best advantage inside one tightly built character rather than in a crowd.

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

In Nesrin Cavadzade's series the intensity of her films seems to spread across large casts. Yasak Elma tells a wide story of luxury and betrayal over six seasons; Bir Başkadır sets many characters side by side in eight episodes, and Cavadzade is one of its broad ensemble. In my view such structures make room for good acting but do not offer the weight that one performer carries alone, as in Kuzu.
