Uğur Bilgin — Biography

Uğur Bilgin is an actor known for comedy, who reached a wide audience as Mesut on Güldür Güldür Show, a role he has played since 2013. He is also a regular on the theater stage and in supporting parts in Turkish comedy cinema.

He grew up in Istanbul in a family originally from Rize. At Yıldız Technical University he first met the stage through the school's theater club; he wanted to train as an actor, but his family was initially not in favor, so after graduating he enrolled in the acting department of Dokuz Eylül University, where Onur Buldu was a classmate.

His first screen steps came in series such as Avrupa Yakası, Arka Sıradakiler and BKM's Aşağı Yukarı Yemişliler, and he played Zeki in Sinan Çetin's film Kağıt. In 2013 he played Caner in Yalan Dünya. Filming on Otisabi began with him in the lead, but the cast was later changed and the part went to Tim Seyfi. In comedy films, Plajda, Böcek, Dedemin Fişi, Kolonya Cumhuriyeti, Cici Babam and Organize İşler 2: Sazan Sarmalı stand out. On Güldür Güldür Show he shared the stage with Ali Sunal, Doğa Rutkay, Alper Kul and Özge Borak, among others.

Their work through different eyes

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

Of Uğur Bilgin's films, Dedemin Fişi and Kolonya Cumhuriyeti are the ones to watch as a family. In the first he plays Remzi in a crowded comedy about a family fighting over an inheritance; the second has an alien guest landing in a small town. Both suit all ages. Organize İşler Sazan Sarmalı follows a crew living off schemes like phone fraud, so I would keep it for older children and adults.

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

In the big BKM ensemble comedies, the parts that fall to Uğur Bilgin are mostly a job or a status: the police inspector in Organize İşler Sazan Sarmalı, the rich man in Bayi Toplantısı, Abdülkadir's father in Cici Babam. For a comic proven in short sketches these are one-note assignments; a crowded cast leaves little screen time or depth. Zeki in Sinan Çetin's Kağıt is a named character who gets more room, and in my view that makes it the more interesting part.

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

The setting where Uğur Bilgin seems most at ease is the ensemble comedy in which a side character can return week after week: Tanrıverdi's flatmate in Avrupa Yakası, Caner in Yalan Dünya, Mesut in Güldür Güldür. The formats move from sitcom to sketch show, but the weight always falls on small, quick beats. Caner in Yalan Dünya, which ran four seasons, looks like the part best suited to a long run.
