From Kuruluş Osman to Yükseliş Orhan!

From Kuruluş Osman to Yükseliş Orhan! Behind the name change: The truth has come to light!

After Burak Özçivit’s departure, major changes are taking place in Kuruluş Osman. In the series, now led by Mert Yazıcıoğlu, a time jump has been introduced in the storyline. It has begun to circulate behind the scenes that Kuruluş Osman, which will now depict the era of Orhan Gazi, has also had its name changed to Yükseliş Orhan. So, in such a case, what could be the reasons behind changing the name of Kuruluş Osman to Yükseliş Orhan?

The change of lead actor in Kuruluş Osman brought along many other shifts. The most striking of these was the time jump in the story. In the series where Mert Yazıcıoğlu will take the lead role, the new season will focus on the period of Orhan Gazi. According to allegations, along with the storyline, the series title was also changed, and the name Kuruluş Osman was replaced with Yükseliş Orhan.

This rumor, which became a hot topic on social media, has not been officially confirmed. However, if such a change occurs, the reasons behind changing the name of Kuruluş Osman to Yükseliş Orhan have become a matter of curiosity.
Here are the reasons that could make Kuruluş Osman turn into Yükseliş Orhan!

1. Change of storyline
In all previous seasons, the series told the story of Osman Gazi establishing the Ottoman Empire. But with the new season, there will be a transition from Osman Gazi to the era when Orhan Gazi became sultan. Since the lead role will now be entrusted to Orhan Bey, a name change seems very likely to emphasize this transition more clearly.

2. Change of lead actor
With Burak Özçivit leaving the series, Mert Yazıcıoğlu has taken over the lead role. Now, it will no longer be Osman Gazi in the spotlight, but Orhan Gazi. For this reason, a “new era with a new actor” revision—highlighting both Orhan Gazi and the new leading man—could be presented through a name change.
