The platform "Shahid" has started airing the first episodes of the series "Asir," the Arabic version of the famous Turkish series "Ezel," which gained wide popularity between 2009 and 2011. The story follows "Asir," a young man who is released from prison after years of injustice, embarking on a bloody journey of revenge against his friends and girlfriend who betrayed him and caused his imprisonment. The series features prominent Syrian and Lebanese drama stars, with Bassel Khayyat portraying the character "Asir" in a striking performance. Abbas Al Nouri also stars in his first experience in an adaptation of a Turkish drama, alongside other notable actors. The wide cast gives the series a rich dramatic character and strong and diverse acting performances. The Arabic version of "Asir" places the original story in an Arab context, adapting details and characters to suit the local audience, adding a more relatable and interactive human dimension. Despite "Ezel" being previously dubbed into the Syrian dialect, "Asir" presents this world in a completely new way. The filming of the series is ongoing to maintain high quality and gradually develop the events, with expectations that the series will continue for 90 episodes, promising continuous suspense throughout its airing period. One of the exciting aspects of this series is the return of Abbas Al Nouri after his absence from the Ramadan 2025 drama, as well as a new opportunity for Bassel Khayyat to portray a complex and mysterious character in his distinctive style, especially after his absence from the last Ramadan race. "Asir" is expected to be one of the standout dramas of the season, as it has the ability to attract the audience due to its thrilling narrative structure and the emotional and intense performances of its stars.
