So, today let’s take a closer look at the attractive Turkish actress.

Until her last role as “Mitra Şerifi“, an Iranian-Turkish young lady, we haven’t heard much of the name of this beautiful actress. However, right after she appeared in the phenomenon Turkish TV drama Kırmızı Oda (The Red Room), the talented actress became viral both on social media and the internet. Many people began searching her background on the internet. Thus, questions such as “Who is Mitra in The Red Room?”, “Who is Melisa Aslı Pamuk?” turned into the most popular questions.
Who is This New Character Mitra Şerifi in The Red Room?
The series differentiates from other productions in that it reveals some intensive real-life stories. By doing so, Kırmızı Oda — Red Room lets us witness therapy processes among patients and therapists. In this sense, the series has already become one of the most assertive productions in the new TV season in 2020-21. Another crucial detail about the series, in the meantime, is the series is welcoming different talented actors and actresses in each episode.

So, as you see, in every episode of the series, we testify to different stories of different characters. This brings us to Mitra Şerifi, played by Melisa Aslı Pamuk. Mitra is a young, charming, well-educated, kind woman who has been living in Istanbul for a while. Her mother is a Turkish woman who moved to Tehran to work in the Turkish Embassy during the 1970s. As for her father, he is a member of one of Tehran’s most well-known families. Both her mother and father are well-educated, well-mannered, and attractive. What’s more, they both are very interested in literature, Iranian literature in particular.
Hereby, love, at first sight, begins between these two. And shortly after, Mitra’s mother and father decide to get married. However, there is a problem that Mitra’s mother doesn’t know yet, which is the fact that he is already married and has 3 children…
Heavy Burdens on Mitra’s Shoulder Onwards Her Childhood
Mitra’s father’s life, then, goes between two houses and two families. The worse, the little child grows up with heavy memories of her childhood. Mitra remembers everything, and so, she blames not only her father but her mother, as well. Mitra blames her mother, too, because she accepts to be the second wife. Therefore, she is just as guilty as her father for causing such pain to such a small and innocent child.

Mitra Makes Her Own Way
The last week was the first time we watched the Mitra character. Therefore, we haven’t known the rest of the story about her. However, as far as we know, she somehow managed to get rid of all those troubles. Then, she probably settled down in some European capitals. Even, she lived in Berlin and Paris. What’s more, Mitra studied philosophy, psychology, and music. Nevertheless, what we don’t know yet is probably Mitra also had the fate as her mother. She fell in love with someone and that’s the reason why she visits the clinic, which is The Red Room. Mitra has a deep love pain and she doesn’t know what to do at all!

Up to this point and this moment, we have tried to set the scene. The story of the character is breathtaking. But what’s more, the beauty and the acting talent of the character are equally fascinating, too. So, this explains why and how Melisa Aslı Pamuk became so popular within such a short period.
