Few people know that Aidan, long before she entered the set, was a beauty queen and model. But this is easy to guess. After all, the beauty of the girl and her ideal figure eloquently indicate that it was not difficult for her to win the Miss Turkey contest. Which way did Aidan Shener go? The biography, a brief filmography and the personal life of the actress and model are disclosed in this article.
Origin
The ancestors of Aidan have nothing to do with cinema. My father worked as a musicologist, and my mother was an ordinary housewife. Parents did not open any doors to the theater world. But nevertheless, a few words should be said about the ancestors of Aidan Shener. On the paternal side, the actress has Kazan roots. In the seventies of the nineteenth century, in the "family of peoples" of the Russian Empire, Muslims were forcibly converted to Christianity. The great-grandfather ener's family also fled from religious persecution. They moved to Turkey. And Aidan's mother is Crimean Tatar by origin. This couple first of March 1963 and was born a beautiful daughter, who later became an actress. Aidan did not forget the land of her ancestors. In two thousand and four and seven years, she came to Kazan, for the first time - accompanied by her father, who had long dreamed of visiting his historic homeland.
Aidan Shener: biography
The future actress was born in Kilis, a small town in the southeast of the country. But when the girl was still quite a baby, her family moved to Bursa. Aidan graduated from high school in this big and noisy city. The young beauty was not without ambition. Therefore, she, at the age of eighteen, decided to take part in a beauty contest. Passed the casting ... and won as a result. In 1981, she represented Turkey in the Miss World contest. And even though Pilin Leon from Venezuela got the crown of the first beauty, the beautiful Turkish woman returned home as a celebrity. Advertising agencies and bigwigs of the modeling business vied with each other to invite Aidan Shener. Photos of the first beauty of Turkey adorned the covers of glossy magazines. Aidan's acting abilities also appeared in commercials. She was first invited to the small television series Kuchuk Aga (1983), where she played the role of Emine, and then serious work began in feature films. Now the artist is successfully filming in various television and film projects, sometimes participating in commercials and shows.
"The Kinglet is a songbird"
Aidan Shener owes its loud fame primarily to the director Osman Seden. It was he who shot the mini-series "The Kinglet is a songbird" in 1986. The book by Reshad Nuri Gyuntekin about the life of the willful and freedom-loving girl Feride is considered a classic in world literature. To invite a starring actress who starred before (except for commercials) in only one television series was a big risk. But Aidan did her job perfectly. And was rewarded. The role of Feride brought her world fame. Invitations to appear rained down on the actress from all sides. As they say, to become a genius, you need to have one percent of talent, and the remaining ninety-nine - diligence. Aidan followed this rule and achieved success. She did not receive an acting education, but mastered it in practice.
Filmography
Aidan Shener is eloquently evidenced by the track record of her roles. After participating in the “Singing Bird”, she immediately took up the role of Fatma in the TV series “Regeneration” (1987), then she played Zyulal in the feature film “The Milky Way”. Sometimes she simultaneously participated in several projects, rushing from one set to another. So, the year 1996 was indicative - then she played four roles at once: Shule in Ay Işığında Saklıdır,
Gulay-Gul in "Satisfaction", Aisha in "Love ends" and Suna in "I can not breathe." Aidan kept such a busy work schedule in the following year, 1997. Particularly successful was her role as Serap in the film "Women in a Quiet Town". It is also worth noting the Turkish series with her participation: “Sealed Roses” (2003), “We Are Not Innocent” (2005), “My Man’s House” (2007), “Banished from Life” and “Red Light” (2008).
Personal life
Aidan Shener married in 1983. The player of the national football team Ayhan Akbin became the chosen one of the then beauty queen “Miss Turkey”. Five years later, in 1988, the couple had a daughter, who was named Edge. But the family life of the actress did not work out. Due to lack of understanding, the couple divorced in 1991. Aidan began to raise her daughter on her own. The actress professes Islam, but does not comply with too strict prescriptions in clothes. They had never seen on her, not just a burqa covering her face, but even a scarf. As Aidan herself assures, Allah must be possessed and honored in the heart.
