“It is a very successful title in our catalog, which is already sold out in all Latin American countries, but there are countries that are more advanced and where the broadcasting of the six seasons has already ended, and there are countries that are just starting. For next year, we expect Forbidden Fruit to be on Univision,” said Rodrigues.
Forbidden Fruit is a Turkish drama about two sisters, Yildiz and Zeynep, who have a close relationship but have very different personalities and goals in life. Zeynep is a young woman who strictly adheres to her ethical values, aspires to have a successful career, and strives to achieve it. At the same time, Yildiz believes she deserves more and considers that happiness is achieved by marrying a rich man who will save her from her poor life.
