Season 1

Bride of Istanbul (İstanbullu Gelin), Season 1 — watch online on iFILM, 16 episodes of this 2017 Turkish drama starring Aslı Enver and Özcan Deniz. Faruk runs his family's bus empire in Bursa — a man used to having things his way. Süreyya is a violinist from Istanbul with no wealth and no connections, but a resolve that catches him off guard.

Their meeting was not supposed to go anywhere. Faruk's controlling mother treats the Istanbul girl as a threat to everything the family built. Season 1 frames the conflict plainly: love against tradition, Istanbul against Bursa, two very different ideas of who belongs where. For anyone new to Turkish drama, this is where the story starts.
