Outrage was widespread on social media as a result of the absence of Burak Özçivit, who had performed the role of Osman Bey for a total of six seasons on the record-breaking series Kuruluş Osman, which was shown on ATV.
It came as a surprise to the production business when Özçivit made a request for a fee of 4 million Turkish lira per episode. Due to the fact that the two parties, who had already stopped following each other, were unable to come to an agreement, Burak Özçivit decided to part ways with Kuruluş Osman.
After the occurrence of all these events, Özçivit published his farewell post publicly. According to what he mentioned in his post, "Saying goodbye is a great virtue." I would want to express my gratitude to those who have been attempting to bring attention to the six years of dedication and passion that I have put into my work. Keep an eye out for new stories.
As soon as the actor had finished cutting the beard that he had grown for his part in the series, he posted his new appearance with his fans, which resulted in a significant amount of curiosity on social media.
On the occasion of Özçivit's beardless appearance, followers expressed their thoughts by stating, "He's officially younger."
Fans were quick to flood social media with mixed reactions to Burak Özçivit's dramatic transformation. While some admired his younger, refreshed appearance, many expressed shock and nostalgia, insisting that the iconic beard had become inseparable from his image. Comments like 'Bring back the beard!' and 'Osman Bey doesn't look the same without it' reflect just how strongly viewers had connected his look with the beloved character. Whether this clean-shaven style is temporary or permanent, one thing is clear—Burak's beard left a lasting impression.
