A commendable gesture from Hande Erçel! She didn't leave Akın Akınözü, whom she hadn't met before, alone at the funeral.

Actor Akın Akınözü's mother Özlem Akınözü passed away after succumbing to the disease she had been struggling with for a long time. Hande Erçel, who had never met, came to the funeral of the beloved actor's mother, as well as many famous names.

Özlem Akınözü (60), the mother of actor Akınözü, who starred in projects such as 'Sensiz Olmuyor', 'Karagül' and 'Deliha 2', succumbed to the cancer she had been fighting for a long time.

“WE LOST A WONDERFUL PERSON”

The sad news was announced on the social media account of the charity association that Akınözü was one of the founders of.

Our painful loss. We lost Özlem Akınözü, one of the founders of our association. We are very sorry, we lost another wonderful person. May her place be heaven. We wish patience to all her family and loved ones.

HE COULD NOT HOLD BACK TEARS

Yesterday, the famous actor, who attended the funeral prayer to bid farewell to his mother, could not hold back his tears. His fellow actors did not leave Akın Akınözü alone on this painful day.

Özlem Akınözü, the daughter of the veteran actor Süreyya Arın, who was born on October 13, 1964, in Ankara, was buried today at Yeni Ayazağa Cemetery following the funeral prayer held at Vadistanbul Mosque in the afternoon.

HIS CO-STAR DID NOT SHOW UP

At the funeral, eyes searched for Ebru Şahin, who shared the lead role in the series 'Hercai' with Akın Akınözü. The fact that Şahin did not attend the funeral, did not express her condolences. Instead, Hande Erçel, whom she had never met, attended the funeral, which became a hot topic on social media. The comments on Şahin's Instagram page read, “Even Hande Erçel was with Akın, whom she had never met. Where were you?” comments were made.

HAD A HARD TIME

Hande Erçel did not leave her colleague Akın Akınözü, who lost his mother, alone at the funeral, even though she never knew him. This gesture of Erçel, who lost her own mother Aylin Erçel for the same reason, was greatly appreciated on social media. It was also noticeable that the famous actress was struggling to hold back her tears and had a hard time.
