Nebahat Çehre

The biography of Nebahat Chekhre is like a fairy tale: a girl from a poor family became the first beauty in Turkey, a fashion icon and a screen star. The actress's filmography includes dozens of works, among her fans are famous colleagues from Hollywood, politicians, financiers. The film star claims that she made many mistakes, but is happy with the way her life and career have developed.

In the port city of Samsun, located on the Black Sea coast, in a middle-class family on March 15, 1944, a girl was born, who in the future was to become one of the most famous Turkish actresses. Little is known about Chekhra's parents: Museyen's mother ran the household and raised Nebahat and her brothers Orhan and Nail, and Izzet's father, a native of Georgia, worked as a lawyer.

When the girl was 5 years old, her father died due to illness, so the actress practically does not remember what he looked like. The mother and children moved to Istanbul, married a local judge, gave birth to a son, Tayyar, and later divorced.

In 1960, Museyenne got together with a journalist with whom Nebahat developed a warm relationship. She never felt like a stranger next to her stepfather, nevertheless she was often sad and remembered her own father. Perhaps that is why in an interview, the artist spoke about how important the atmosphere of happiness and a full-fledged family is for children.

Chekhre grew up a shy and modest child and, at the age of 15, went to the Miss Turkey beauty pageant in order to become more self-confident, in which she took 1st place. Such events become turning points in the fate of the participants, and Nebahat did not pass this share.

The winner was filmed for the covers of glossy magazines, despite the far from model height of 165 cm, she was invited as a fashion model. She became a role model among women, and men asked for autographs on the street from the national star.

Nebahat represented her country at Miss World and Miss Universe, but there the beauty did not manage to reach the finals.

The Turkish woman devoted most of her time to modeling, but she also had the strength to study. After graduating from high school, Chekhre entered the evening department of the University of Arts, the diploma of which, however, did not receive.

In her youth, the actress tried her hand as a singer, Nebahat was forced to take such a step. According to sources, in the 70s, there was a surge in interest in explicit scenes in Turkish cinema, and Chekhre did not want to act in them. She started taking vocal lessons, recorded several songs, but did not make a career in this field.

Chekhra also did not think about acting as a profession, although the transition from modeling to cinema is quite natural. So "Miss Turkey - 1960" received an offer to star in the melodrama "Wild Rose" (not to be confused with the Mexican TV series). She did not like the role of the eccentric rich woman, and Nebahat swore to appear in the studio in the future.

Nevertheless, the news of Chekhre's participation in the next project was not long in coming. The painting "Bitter Life" about love and social inequality is still considered a classic of Turkish cinema. In the film, the actress played a girl paying for the sins of her brother.

Among the best works of Nebahat of those years it is worth highlighting "The Land of Brides", "The Red Mask", "Iron Claw: Wars of Spies", "The Lion of the Seven Mountains". Then events in his personal life became the reason for big changes in his career. The actress, who parted with her first husband, an influential person in the industry, the directors were afraid to give work. Chekhre appeared only in a number of episodes and in the adventure film The Nameless Warrior.

In the 80s, Nebahat completely turns into a housewife, preferring family chores to filming. The return to the screens took place in the new century. In the series "June Night", based on a true story, she got a supporting role. The woman spent almost the entire fee to create the image, so her heroine did not get lost at all against the background of the main characters.

The name Chekhre appears in the cast of the films “I had a dream last night”, “Broken hearts”, “Laughter”, “Tyrant”.

The Russian audience learned about the artist thanks to the drama Forbidden Love. The series full of passions with a sad ending, filmed for two years, has also become popular in Slovakia, Romania, Morocco, Ukraine and in two dozen other countries.

The historical film "The Magnificent Age", in which Nebahat was reincarnated as the domineering Hafse-Sultan, the mother of Sultan Suleiman I, also gained a lot of fans. The line of confrontation between Valida and the ruler's wife, performed by Meriem Uzerli, is one of the brightest and most dramatic.

In the Azerbaijani project "Bloody January" Chekhre again appeared in the form of a mother, this time an officer of the Soviet army and a KGB officer. In the center of the plot of the picture are the events of January 1990, the so-called Armenian pogrom, when troops were brought into Baku in order to stop ethnic unrest.

Nebahat was married twice, but marriages hindered the actress in her creative development. In addition, she is too picky, does not know how and does not want to close her eyes to shortcomings. Nevertheless, she only had positive memories of her life partners.

She met her first husband, director and screenwriter, laureate of the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, Yilmaz Guney, in 1964. For the sake of a brown-eyed beauty with a regal bearing, the man left his former family and child.

His character turned out to be quick-tempered, Güney used to beat his wife. After 4 years, the couple divorced, but Nebahat keeps a letter from her ex-husband with a declaration of love, is friends with her stepdaughter.

The celebrity's second choice, basketball player Yavuz Demir, was, on the contrary, restrained and soft, but demanded that Chekhre stop acting, and the directors forgot about the actress for a while. Children in this union did not appear: Nebahat intuitively felt that the relationship would not last long, and had an abortion.

She calls the young artist Beren Saat her daughter. Colleagues in Forbidden Love have good feelings for each other. Chekhre closely monitors what is happening in the life of the star of "Empire Kyosem" and supports everything.

Nebahat, like Monica Bellucci, to whom she is surprisingly similar, is considered "a woman who is aging correctly." Fans, having learned about the age of the idol, sometimes do not believe the numbers. Chekhre says that genetics are to thank for the appearance. And the beauty secret is hammam, chemical peels, morning exercises, herbal creams and positive. But in one interview, Nebahat admitted that she had plastic surgery, although this is not a panacea: wrinkles still appeared.

Chekhre actively maintains a page on Instagram, where he uploads photos and videos from filming, walks, social events.

The actress has been in the profession for more than half a century and has every right to give advice to colleagues. Now, says Chekhre, the work of an artist is paid in a completely different way, and young people should take care of a dignified old age. Nebahat regrets that she herself did not think about it, bought only one house and now worries about what will happen next if he is left without roles.
