I have a 17-year-old daughter named Ülkü Hilal Çiftçi. My daughter works as an actress under the OnTalent Management agency. However, I saw in my daughter's WhatsApp messages that she is in a relationship with a man 10 years her senior on the set where she acts, and I was disturbed by this situation.

In his petition, Ünal Çiftçi stated that he is filing a complaint against OnTalent Management agency owner Gözde Yılmaz and his daughter's co-star Hakan Çelebi. The report noted that no public statement from the parties involved regarding the application has been released.
