Digital Phablet – The buzz surrounding Devrim Özkan and Ulaş Tuna Astepe couldn’t save “Çift Kişilik Oda” from being cut short.
Did Ulaş Tuna Astepe and Cansu Baydar part ways due to Devrim Özkan?The Turkish drama series Çift Kişilik Oda (Double Room), which premiered with significant expectations and a notable cast, failed to resonate with viewers. The eighth episode will mark its conclusion, as the decision to end the show was made shortly after the airing of its sixth episode.
According to reporter Birsen Altuntaş, the production team opted for an early cancellation of the series. This abrupt ending is surprising, given that it featured both emerging and established talent in Turkey, including Ulaş Tuna Astepe, Devrim Özkan, Sevil Tunca, Begüm Çıtak, Levent Ülgen, and Serkan Tınmaz.

Written by Ayşe Üner Kutlu, Çift Kişilik Oda follows a young woman named Nilüfer (portrayed by Devrim Özkan), who lost her parents early in life and aspires to manage the hotel they founded. One of the co-owners, Kaan (Ulaş Tuna Astepe), returns to the property not out of kindness, but to settle scores with his half-sister Sevil. This encounter drastically alters Nilüfer’s life.
The narrative delves into themes of loss, ambition, and transformation, as Nilüfer and Kaan, each possessing distinct aspirations, engage in a journey that fundamentally alters their lives. While the series was commended for its concept and emotional richness, it struggled to retain viewers amidst stiff competition from other quality programs airing concurrently.
Viewers expressed their disappointment on social media, indicating they appreciated the performances but wished for greater character and storyline development.
With only two episodes left, Çift Kişilik Oda is poised to conclude its storyline. It remains to be seen if it will find new life on a streaming platform or remain a short-lived series in the annals of television history.
