Let's make this birthday one to remember.

43 years old (Born on February 16, 1982)

Happy Birthday, Kartal Balaban! Another year older, wiser, and still effortlessly stealing scenes. Whether you're charming audiences with your impeccable comedic timing or captivating them through heartfelt drama, you've proven that talent truly ages like fine Turkish coffee—stronger and richer every year.

From unforgettable performances to recent successes lighting up screens big and small, you continue to inspire laughter and admiration. May this birthday bring you as much joy as you've given us through your memorable roles. Here's hoping the coming years are filled with even more applause-worthy moments—and fewer bloopers (though we secretly love those too). Cheers!
