Esra Bilgic, the Turkish actress, has hinted at working with top brands of Pakistan. In her interview with a publication in Pakistan, she revealed the news of her upcoming projects in Pakistan.
However, Esra Bilgic did not name the brand since she said it is too early. Esra shared the detail when asked about her plans to visit Pakistan.
Esra Bilgic says she will work with Pakistani brands soon
“Yes, better late than never!” she confirms. “We will meet when all this is over when I will be working with Pakistani brands. I’m sharing, for the first time, that I’m about to work with three of Pakistan’s most loved brands. This will soon be announced by the press as well.”
Perhaps, the fears of Pakistani actors like Shaan Shahid and Yasir Hussain turned true. They had predicted that with the unprecedented rage for Turkish serial, Dirilis Ertugrul, in Pakistan, soon some of these Turkish actors will be signed for brand endorsements. This implied that there would be fewer opportunities for brand endorsements for Pakistani celebrities.
My favourite bit from my interview with #Ertugrul’s #EsraBilgic, printed on the cover of today’s @IconDawn. The actress has evidently signed on with three major Pakistani brands. I have been in detective mode ever since and I do have some sure shot guesses now 😉#ErtugrulGhazi pic.twitter.com/6YuQq0HITS
