Before we begin

Ask Laftan Anlamaz (Pyar Lafzon Mein Kahan) is a Turkish romantic comedy drama series. And you all know my love for rom-coms. I am already revieweing three other turkish rom-coms. 

Relationship Status: Complicated (Ayeshagul): This one has the best heroine of all rom-coms – Aysegul. The story is dragging, though.

Tera Mera Pyar : Very adorable couple and very witty lines. Love Ayse & Kerim.

Emergency Pyar : It isn’t really a rom-com. Very little romance and very little comedy and the two aren’t even related. The heroine is annoying and only Abidin brings the comic relief. Only 4 episodes to go and then I will be rid of this burden.

I first watched a few clips showing the best and most romantic scenes between Hayat and Murat. It was enough to get me curious about this drama.

Alright, with the basics established, let get to know the cast and characters.
