ORAY Music
During a dispute with his wife Burcu, Oray pronounces the Islamic divorce formula "talaq". The imam explains the consequences to him: Oray has to part with Burcu for three months. Oray uses the relationship break imposed on them to make a new start and moves to Cologne. Here he finds a job at a flea market and looks for a new community led by the young Imam Bilal. Oray soon begins preaching himself and is particularly popular with young parishioners, which arouses envy in Bilal. When Burcu pays her husband a surprise visit, they realize that the break has done them good. They still love each other. So he asks Bilal for advice. But he represents a stricter interpretation of Islamic law than the imam in his home community:
In an almost documentary style, director Mehmet Akif Büyükatalay tells how an individual works through the complex system of a religion and seeks human fulfillment between his belief in love and his love for faith.

6 Ghante Kathe Play
6 Ghante Kathe, is a hilarious Hyderabadi comedy play. Through its lighthearted narrative, the play cleverly sheds light on the challenges faced by street boys tragically deprived of their basic daily needs. It unravels the extraordinary story of two young boys who, by luck, find themselves spared and offered a remarkable opportunity by none other than Yamraaj, the mythical Hindu god of death.The play cleverly intertwines humor and satire, deftly exploring the contrasting desires of the bewildered boys. As they grapple with their newfound power, their wishes reflect the socio-political landscape surrounding them. They find themselves torn between personal aspirations and the desire to improve the plight of their fellow destitute companions. The climactic end of the sixth hour looms, leaving the boys and the audience eagerly anticipating the outcome. Will their wishes bring them the happiness and fulfillment they long for? Or will they realize that true contentment lies not in material gains but in the intangible connections and empathy they have forged along their journey?
