Ruhsar is a fantasy comedy produced by ANS Productions. It was shown on Kanal D from 1998 to 2001, ran for five seasons and ended with its 108th episode on Saturday, December 29, 2001. The series broke off often because of the 1999 Marmara earthquake. Gani Müjde was the script editor, Nihat Durak the general director, and the music was by Özkan Turgay and Fikret Alper. Gani Müjde also wrote the 2007 series Hayal ve Gerçek, which was inspired by it.

Mazhar and Ruhsar have just married; in the first days of the marriage Ruhsar catches an incurable illness and dies. In the afterlife she meets an angel called Gözüm Abla, who is in charge of the dead for Turkey. Because of her good conduct she can visit Mazhar only when it rains, and as a spirit only he can see her. Mazhar's mother Menkıbe, who never liked Ruhsar, starts looking for a new wife for him. His sister Firdevs is in love with Mazhar's friend Müfit, but her own marriage depends on Mazhar's. The neighborhood grocer Muhteşem and his apprentice Muhterem also appear. Mazhar works at an advertising firm called Generation Ajans.

Hande Ataizi plays Ruhsar, Cem Davran plays Mazhar Mahmutoğlu and Göksel Kortay plays Menkıbe. Zuhal Topal appears as Nurtop, Cezmi Baskın as Professor Zülfikar, Ceyda Düvenci as Lale and Fatih Ürek as the medium Ferruh.

Through different eyes

AI-assisted editorial takes written from different viewer perspectives. They are not reader reviews; those are below.

Yeşilçam Nostalgic A viewer raised on the classics, looking for warm storytelling and strong acting.

Ruhsar is a fantasy comedy about a woman who dies in the first days of marriage and returns, only when it rains and only visible to her husband, as a spirit. This warm and slightly sad idea recalls the love themes of old Turkish films. The mother-in-law Menkıbe's search for a new wife and types such as the neighborhood grocer bring neighborhood warmth. The weaving of death and angel themes into comedy may not sit lightly with some viewers. A tender series.

Series Binger A series devotee tracking character arcs, cast chemistry and season pacing.

Five seasons in 108 episodes, a broadcast frequently broken by the 1999 Marmara earthquake: a series that struggled to find its rhythm. The idea is lovely: the dead Ruhsar appears to Mazhar in the rain while his mother looks for a new wife. A rule this narrow strains a fantasy comedy over the long run; if the rain excuse is used too often it repeats. The chemistry between Hande Ataizi and Cem Davran and Göksel Kortay's mother-in-law type must be among the series' solid sides.

Family Viewer Asks whether the whole household can watch it; cares about humor and heart.

A fantasy comedy: the dead wife returns as a spirit, an angel called Gözüm Abla manages affairs and the mother-in-law looks for a new bride. Death is part of the subject, but the series seems to treat it in a tender and light tone; it might even open a conversation when children ask what happens after death. It can be watched with grandparents and suits fans of family comedy. It is an older production, though, and its pace may feel slow beside today's fast series. For a quiet Saturday evening.
