Synopsis

Kurt Seyit (Kivanc Tatlitug) is a womanizing lieutenant who is the first son of a rich Crimean landowner of Turkish origin. He is so handsome and successful. Shura (Farah Zeynep Abdullah), on the other hand, is the beautiful daughter of a noble Russian family. She is so naïve and beautiful.

These two young persons meet at a ball in St. Petersburg. Before Shura comes to the ball, Kurt Seyit makes a bet with his friends and tells them he will manage to kiss the first girl who enters the room. And then Shura joins the ball. When Kurt Seyit sees Shura, he develops a crush on her. At the same time, Shura falls in love with him at first sight and can’t get him out of her mind.

Although Kurt Seyit and Shura start to love each other to death, they have to endure obstacles in front of their ways. Kurt Seyit has to prove his fidelity while Shura has to learn to trust him. Also, they have to act against the wishes of their families. This is because; Kurt Seyit’s father wants him to get married to a Turkish girl whereas Shura’s family wants her to get married to a noble man.

For this reason, they must fight for their love against the forces of family, the expectations of society and the events of history in 1920s during revolutions in Russia and Ottoman Empire.

In Kurt Seyit and Shura tv series story, you will explore the adventures of two lovers who have broken away from their magnificent lives in Russia and have been dragged to Istanbul. Will Shura believe in Kurt Seyit’s fidelity? Will Kurt Seyit convince his family? Will the love between Kurt Seyit ans Shura manage to stand for all the obstacles?

  • Hermosísima serie, la he visto online en seriesturcas.gratis y he quedado fascinada con Kivanc Tatlitug. Me gustaría me informaran si hará una nueva serie próximamente.

  • I was enthralled by the Seyit and Shura TV serial. It broke my heart when they did not get together. It appeared to me such a senseless waste when Seyit refuses to discuss the issues he has with Shura for her to get a better understanding of what is important to him. The fact that in real life Shura cannot see through the machinations of Petro is unbelievable. Are Petro’s machinations real? He is so evil and successful. Is there a sequel? I am so hooked on it.

    • According to the author of the novel (shura's granddaughter) there was a Petro who Seyit did kill but that happened early on in the relationship. All of the things he did on the series didn't really happen. Sura moved to the US and got married, Seyit stayed married. They did stay in touch throughout their lives. Seyit committed suicide after he found out he had I think either TB or lung cancer as he didn't want to be a burden to his family.

  • Una gran novela, yo la pude ver completa en español en seriesturcas . org Me encantó, Kivanc y Farah geniales!

  • Somehow on Oct 1, 2017 I stumbled through Netflix for something I was unlikely to watch and somehow I clicked and out of curiosity began watching Kurt Seyit and Sura. Like most all 236 comments was immersed in its beauty and grandeur. As a history buff, and having read Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and the tragic times of Russians during the Revolution, this series, in Turkish with English subtitles, was mesmerizing. THEN, what should I find online but that this story is based on a true story written by Seyit's own granddaughter!

    So most of the comments and fan's reviews express my feelings. Reading these 230-odd comments and still watching up to episode 17, I guess one would want to stop watching, knowing the fate of them as a couple, and on another website discovering the spoilers, I am still curious about what leads to an end. Oddly, nothing "spoils" me because of a natural curiosity.

    It was while Seyit was burying his father and hearing his threats about Seyit and "that woman" that in a stinking I began to have a foreboding a twi (this was before I got on the website and found out more) .Turkish and Mid-East tradition dictates that the father's word is law. It was so deeply rooted in Seyit's culture that his father, even after death, was his master. A few subsequent scenes later proved that out and to Sura, it was becoming more obvious. Eventually it came to fruition. That young man Kivanc's emotional acting especially during Seyit's burying the parents he tried to save greatly affected me. Even knowing the fates of the two lovers, it is his and Sura''s and the maddeningly traitorous Petro's strong acting that makes him the one you love to hate.

    Needless to say, there must be a calculating woman, cheaply dubbed Baroness Lola, who (at least at this portion of the series, has has no redeeming qualities. All of these ingredients make for a great feast. It is only in a screen version of a true story that such coincidental meetings occur so predictably. I am one-third of the way through, as of this post.

    I also love Celid and especially Tatya, his sweet ballerina fiancee, because of her generosity and hospitality toward a beautiful Turkish girl who had secretly loved him and thought his name was Seyit, was one of my favorite parts. This kind of screenwriting keeps one interested, in fact enthralled.

    • Tara again...I am using a Kindle Fire that often spurts out totally unrelated words. I meant "in a twinkling" not "stinking" but there is no option for correcting words. Sorry...

  • Based on the television drama, I believe a second season is necessary... too many unanswered questions about whether their love for each other continues despite their different paths? If not another season, then I will watch Season one over and over and ...

  • After reading the comments and knowing the leads didn't end up together I will not be watching this-.- I'm still depressed over Scarlet Heart Ryeo kdrama,I refuse to watch something with a bad ending-.-

  • I just thought it was odd how she was basically living at the shop, but when he asked her to move in she says no...a bunch of your stuff is already here! It was frustrating that she kept doubting him, and maybe that is what took on a toll on their relationship, but after finding out, and I believe she found out first, (and then her sister had the audacity to rub in Seyit's face that her departure was for his safety; she really does irk me) how does she not say anything to him? Was it because they damage had already been done? I feel like they both got to a point where they both just stopped fighting.

    • A lot of Turkish dizi will have to be missed then Ivetta. I find it almost ridiculous that it is acceptable that a huge audience has to be manipulated hugely for long drawn stories and in some cases it is ridiculous that the patiently won love and positive future might have a beloved killed in a car crash - or something like that. And of course the old chestnut of warring mafia-style rich families and controlling patriarchs make most of their family's life a misery. Really? But that must be what the audiences like. One thing I didn't like in Kurt ve Sura was that on their first 'love scene' we see how this child of a girl had her virginity taken by Kurt. In some countries/cultures such a story event wouldn't happen. I think Iffet had the same opener; handsome sexy guy 'wants her very badly' so therefore he 'takes' her!! Sheesh! And he carries on being the dizi's hero to the end. (Mmm - but he did get killed accidentally by her didn't he? Just desserts, or something.)

      • You are on point! The series is unlike the book( somewhat pornographic, I returned). The public fell for the actors, not the actual characters. Seyit was an MCP and Sura, a naïve, young girl, Seyit replacing her father. The series is so full of flaws, lust, unlike Dostoevsky; Hollywood would never attempt to film such a story so full of stupidity. The key here is communication, which the characters lacked. A fairytale with an unlikey ending. Seyit settled for catfish, after enjoying caviar. This series is an insult to women, following the Womens Suffragette Movement , which began iin 1848. I am a history buff, and enjoy the Russian and Turkish development, but, please, if this is based on a true story, what happened? Only my personal opinion. M.

  • I think she might have been jealous of her sister; maybe she was more reserved, and didn't want to openly express how she felt about Constantin, but I think she loved him. I think she was jealous of Sura in the sense that she was more open about how she felt about Seyit, she didn't hold back. How many people jump out of a moving train to go be with the person they love in the middle of all that chaos?

    • I am loving reading all these interesting perspectives on the Kurt ve Sura series, and the granddaughters writing of it for us. I admire that some of you have re-watched it. I realise that I couldn't do that because as I enjoyed it first I found myself for the only time in my viewing life, really really cringing and hating that whats-his-name Petro (with the suave moustache?)who was in EVERY shot and circumstances, event and gathering - EVERY time. Creepy, stalky, and awful as a character, who we had learnt near the beginning was a coward and a chancer. The directoral team; why, why does he clutter every bit of every action.... creeping around like a cockroach?
