People sometimes say Engin Günaydın repeated his role as Burhan Altıntop in Gül Ağa but I don’t agree. Some of the mannerisms might be the same but I think the overall personalities of the characters are completely different. Burhan is abrasive and arrogant, full of inferiority complexes and both cunning and an ignorant idiot. Gül Ağa is an ass-kisser but he is also wiser than he looks and more the victim than the aggressor.
Basically don’t insult Gül Ağa. I don’t think the performance is the same at all.
Gül Ağa is a favorite character of mine as I am Nigarcentric so please don’t insult him by comparing him to Burhan freaking Altıntop who was a pest.
