Episode 14 | Lovebird

Çalikuşu is an historical romantic drama series based on a novel of the same name set in Istanbul at the beginning of the twentieth century. The more accurate translation for Çalikuşu is wren. However, its’ English title is Lovebird which is a nickname for Feride, the main female character.
As a child, Feride, also known as Çalıkuşu for her childish behavior[why?], loses her mother. Her father, a military officer, entrusts her to her maternal aunt, Besime, and her husband, Seyfettin. The couple starts raising her along with their own children, Kamran and Necmiye. When she is a teenager, Feride is informed that her father is killed in action.
Having become adults, Feride and Kamran still mess with each other, not knowing of their shared fate. Kamran has become a doctor working at a hospital. Necmiye falls in love with Selim, Kamran's friend and fellow doctor. Selim is instructed by Levent, his stepfather and an enemy of Seyfettin's family, to date Feride; the former quickly falls in love with her. He mistakes her for another woman diagnosed with a terminal illness. He informs her of the condition and offers a cure. Feride discovers that Kamran is secretly seeing a middle-aged widow Neriman, and threatens to tell her aunt and uncle unless Kamran agrees to pretend to date Feride.
Seyfettin gets infected with the plague, a near incurable disease at the time. Kamran manages to cure him with a blood transfusion, an illegitimate act. Seeing Kamran as a love rival, Selim reports the former's action to the local cleric. Kamran escapes, but is later captured and sentenced to death. The cleric pardons him when his own son is infected with the plague and he is forced to accept transfusion. Meanwhile, Feride realizes that she is healthy while Selim tries to poison her to prove she is sick. Necmiye finds out his plan after eating a poisoned fondant herself, becoming ill, and then giving the rest to their chickens, which are killed. She then confronts Selim in her room. Kamran enters and mistakes it for a sexual relationship between the two, and ends his friendship with Selim. Kamran forces Selim to court and marry Necmiye, which is accepted by the family. Kamran and Feride are revealed to have fallen in love.
Selim kidnaps Feride. Kamran and Yusuf, a servant, manage to find her and capture Selim, who escapes and returns to see Feride, but is killed by Necmiye. Kamran takes the blame and Feride sells the mansion to a rich woman named Azelia in order to pay the blood money. Levent is sentenced to death for his schemes. As Kamran and Feride prepare to get married, Neriman reveals to him that she is pregnant by him. Seyfettin marries her in order to keep her away from Kamran, who finally decides to tell Feride. She leaves because she doesn't want another child to be orphaned like herself. Kamran has a one-night stand with Azelia when he is drunk. Seyfettin divorces Neriman. It is revealed that the baby is not Kamran's. Kamran buys back the family mansion. He and Feride decide to reunite and get married. On the wedding night, Neriman reveals to Feride what happened between Kamran and Azelia. Feride leaves and adopts an orphan intended to remind her of the love.
After months of searching, Kamran finds the duo in an inn and tells Feride to meet him at the train station the next day to return home with him so they can be a family again. Kamran waits for Feride at the station, the train arrives and Kamran smiles, implying their return.

The best part is the servants are treated like family. They share family issues and hide secrets just like a family. I love those three helpers. Wish i have one such in my life.

You forget she is only 17 years old, still a schoolgirl. While Kamran is in his 20s, a grown man, with at least 4 previous girlfriends, including an older woman (Neriman). Feride is insecure, naive, and childlike. She's never known what it's like to love a man, to kiss a man. She didn't have a mother she could turn to and have these talks with. This is also a submissive culture, one where male have authority over women. This is how Kamran was raised. Feride is a free bird. She doesn't want to lose herself, her freedom, in marriage. Also, Kamran has previously played with Feride's heart in the beginning, when he led her on, and left her standing alone in town. He was figuring his feelings for her, but he led her on.

I love the way Feride has acted ... complete justice to the role

[s_oo-xu]

Feride was a woman who lived her life by her own rules, and I love her for that. The only thing I would change Feride and Kamran is that they would be sincere to each other, and communicate.

[laibafaryad]

Oh my godddd i can't believe he's kemal amd osman bey .... Too romantic here

[braindrain]

I love the female character...not all women dance to the tones of men....rebels do exist

[zamzamzamzam]

I pity feride who is busy with her studies and exams yet at home obliged with the engagement and wedding preparations.

[rodam]

This is a man who is intimate with women, his chasing her wanting it from her even though they are not married. She is young, shy and naive

[mandakiniporiwade]

Feride is the best...❤️ I love her❤️ I even like Kamran but sometimes I hate him

[aishaa]

Kamran tried to make her like nerimenim

[abigaelluhya]

All I want to see is Selim loving Nascimiye..she's such a humble and great lady..all she wished was Selim to love her back..I have experienced that and I know how it feels..it hurts so much and for someone to recover from it takes lots of time..nacmiye I love you.. despite being raised in a rich family she still knows the work or play of a house wife.. congratulations gal..I'm with you

[EntertainmentWD]

The chemistry between Kamran and his father it's precious loving to seeing them 👍

[jessicasonio]

Feride looks like angelina jolie so beautiful😍😍😍

[mahamcooksbakes]

Kamran should love feride for who she is; he keeps trying to change her, be a lady, be a lady
She izzz a lady urrrgh ..iss just she hides things, she should communicate properly
On top of everything, she should have get married after she recieved her diploma.
Her edu. is on stake, she has things to do/finish ...but erryone just going crazy at her... Duh

[theguy]

Really Feride has a tone of Kate Winslate

[sandragrey-alvaranga]

This entire episode is disgusting. There is no way a male teacher at a Girl's Boarding School could behave that way, He came across as an unprofessional predator, What were the writers thinking?

[naghmakarim]

Kamran is a womanizer - he doesn’t deserve Feride - she is too good for him!

[CyberSavvySadaf]

I don’t like how kamrans trying to change feride to dress and look like Neriman 🙄 and being a control freak interfering with her studying

[lakshmiprasanna]

There is no plastic waste...all the things are packed in paper...

[zainabghulam]
