Serenay Sarıkaya sings with Ajda Pekkan, 11 years after wishing for it
At Netflix's 10th-anniversary party in Türkiye, Serenay Sarıkaya shared a stage with Ajda Pekkan, fulfilling a wish she voiced in 2015.
Some wishes take a while. Actress Serenay Sarıkaya has just ticked one off after 11 years: she sang a duet with Ajda Pekkan.
It happened at the party marking Netflix's 10th anniversary in Türkiye, which brought many famous names together. Pekkan, known as the "Süperstar" of Turkish pop, and Sarıkaya stepped on stage and sang together, each holding a microphone. Video of the moment has been shared, and the performance was one of the highlights of the night.
The duet drew extra attention because of an old interview. In 2015, Sarıkaya said she wanted to sing a duet with Pekkan. Eleven years later, she got to share the stage with the artist she had dreamed of performing with.
Sarıkaya is best known as an actress, but she is also recognised for performances in which she sings.
For context: Netflix launched in Türkiye in January 2016, when it expanded to more than 130 new countries at once.
