Turkish television has long excelled at intimate family sagas
Turkish television has long excelled at intimate family sagas and epic romances, but Aynı Yağmur Altında signals a deliberate shift toward globally resonant storytelling. With its first images now unveiled, atv’s upcoming drama promises a narrative that reaches beyond borders both geographically and emotionally.
Produced by Baba Yapım, one of Turkey’s most respected production houses, Aynı Yağmur Altında brings together a striking lead pairing, a veteran ensemble cast, and a story that places human rights, illness, love, and moral consequence at its core.
This is not a conventional love story. It is a drama about collision between ideals and reality, between personal desire and uncontrollable events.

Cast And Crew
The project stars Nilsu Berfin Aktaş and Burak Tozkoparan in the leading roles. Direction is handled by Ali Balcı, while the screenplay is written by Hasan Burak Kayacı, Kemal Çelik, and Hakan Kandal.
Fight for human rights
The story centers on Rosa, a young woman who has dedicated her life to the fight for human rights. Her life takes a dramatic turn during a Gaza protest she attends in London.
While dealing with a serious illness and an unexpected personal journey, Rosa finds herself in Istanbul, where her path once again crosses with Ali, a man she first met at the same protest.
Rosa and Ali quickly fall in love, but their relationship becomes the trigger for a devastating chain of events that neither could have anticipated.
The series also features Hülya Avşar, Fikret Kuşkan, Taro Emir Tekin, Bahar Şahin, Levent Ülgen, Deniz Uğur, Erkan Can, Mine Çayıroğlu, Sarp Bozkurt, and Türkü Turan.
The Story at the Core: When Love Meets Consequence
At the heart of Aynı Yağmur Altında lies a deceptively simple question:
Can love remain pure when the world around it is burning?
Rosa: An Idealist in a Fractured World
Rosa is not written as a passive romantic heroine. She is:
- Politically conscious
- Emotionally resilient
- Physically vulnerable due to illness
Her activism is not a backdrop it actively shapes the story’s moral tension.
Ali: Love Without Armor
Ali represents emotional openness rather than ideological certainty. His connection with Rosa is immediate and sincere, yet dangerously fragile in a world shaped by power, politics, and unintended consequences.
Together, they form a relationship that is not tested by misunderstanding but by reality itself.
From London to Istanbul: A Transnational Narrative
The decision to begin the story in London and continue in Istanbul is significant. It reflects:
- The global nature of modern activism
- The emotional displacement of contemporary youth
- The contrast between public protest and private survival
This geographic shift also positions Aynı Yağmur Altında for international interest, especially among viewers seeking socially conscious drama.
Nilsu Berfin Aktaş: A Career-Defining Role?
For Nilsu Berfin Aktaş, Rosa may mark a turning point. Known for emotionally accessible performances, this role demands:
- Ideological conviction
- Physical vulnerability
- Psychological depth
It is a part that moves her beyond romantic archetypes into dramatic territory shaped by ethics and consequence.
Burak Tozkoparan: Emotional Restraint Over Spectacle
Burak Tozkoparan casting signals subtlety. His portrayal of Ali appears grounded, restrained, and emotionally driven rather than performative an essential balance against the story’s heavy themes.
A Veteran Ensemble That Adds Gravity
The supporting cast elevates the narrative with generational depth:
- Hülya Avşar – symbolic authority and emotional legacy
- Fikret Kuşkan – quiet power and realism
- Erkan Can – moral ambiguity
- Deniz Uğur & Levent Ülgen – social and familial tension
This ensemble ensures the story does not rely solely on its leads but unfolds as a multi-layered social drama.
Behind the Camera: Why the Creative Team Matters
Director: Ali Balcı
Known for emotionally grounded storytelling, Balcı’s direction suggests a focus on character psychology rather than spectacle.
Writers’ Room
The trio of Hasan Burak Kayacı, Kemal Çelik, and Hakan Kandal brings narrative balance—combining political awareness with emotional realism.
This creative alignment increases the show’s credibility and long-term narrative strength.
Why Aynı Yağmur Altında Feels Timely
Few Turkish dramas dare to directly reference:
- Global protests
- Human rights activism
- Illness as a narrative driver
By integrating these elements organically, the series speaks to a generation navigating uncertainty, identity, and responsibility.\
