“Selahaddin Eyyubi” is an upcoming grand historical TV series that is set to be co-produced by Pakistan and Turkey. The series is expected to be a significant collaboration between the two countries, with a focus on the life and legacy of the Muslim leader Sultan Selahaddin Eyyubi. It will be broadcast on TRT 1, a popular Turkish television network.
The production of the series has already begun, and it is garnering attention for several reasons. One notable aspect is the lead role, which is being portrayed by Turkish actor Uğur Güneş. Uğur Güneş gained fame through his role in TRT’s well-known series “Ertugrul,” making him a familiar face to audiences interested in historical dramas.
What makes this series even more intriguing is the impressive set where it is being filmed. The production has recreated a vast 200-acre area to resemble the ancient city of Damascus. This set includes various elements such as mosques, bazaars, palaces, and houses, providing an authentic and immersive experience of the historical context in which the story is set.
The project involves a substantial cast and crew, signifying the scale and ambition of the production. With the combined efforts of both Pakistani and Turkish professionals in the entertainment industry, “Selahaddin Eyyubi” is poised to offer a high-quality viewing experience.
Recently, the much-anticipated teaser for the series was shared by key figures involved in the project, including Uğur Güneş and Adnan Siddiqui, who is not only an actor in the series but also one of the producers.
In his Instagram post, Adnan Siddiqui expressed excitement about the series and invited the audience to witness the epic saga of Selahaddin Eyyubi, emphasizing the historical valor and honor depicted in the show.
He also extended his gratitude to the dedicated team, including Dr. Junaid Ali Shah, Dr. Kashif Ansari, Humayun Saeed, and the production companies Ansari-Shah Films and Akli Films, for their hard work in bringing this historical production to life.
