As Zülfikar Karslı begins to lose his former power at the bus terminal due to health problems, all eyes turn to his son Zafer, who is said to be returning from abroad. Timur, a mobile mechanic struggling with the debts left by his father, crosses paths with this secret-filled family — and unknowingly steps into a destiny he never imagined, as Zafer Karslı, the heir to Zülfikar Karslı. For Zülfikar's children — Kudret, Derya, Cennet, Zafer, and Zafer’s wife Reyhan — nothing will ever be the same again.
The first teaser has been released, where we see the Karslı family together for the first time. Set during a wedding, the teaser hints at the fierce internal battles to come.
