Development

[edit]

"This series is not only for Muslims or Pakistan and Turkish population but also to show the world that there was a Muslim ruler whose opponents also appreciated his courage, justice, bravery and equality."

—Kashif Ansari, one of the producers

On 20 August 2021, the agreement between Emre Konuk, owner of Akli Film Production and Pakistan's Ansari & Shah Films producers Dr. Kashif Ansari and Dr. Junaid Ali Shah, on the production of this new series titled Selahaddin Eyyubi was signed in Belgrade.[11][18] Emre tweeted:

A happy news on a blessed Friday night! Contract signed between Akli Films and Ansari&Shah Films about ‘Sultan Selahaddin Ayyubi’. May this international project, which will be prepared with the cooperation of Turkey and Pakistan, be beneficial to our country and our art world.[7]

On 18 October 2021, the delegation from Turkey landed in Islamabad International Airport to begin auditions for the drama series in Lahore and Karachi.[19] The delegation visited Faisal Mosque and met with the prime minister to officially announce the Pak-Turk collaboration. They also met with various other government dignitaries. The auditions in Lahore and Karachi took place at Nishat Hotel and DHA respectively. The judges were Berna Kürekci and Ahmet Faruk.

Shooting began on 2 September 2023.

The series will feature actors from both Turkey and Pakistan. 75% of the show cast will be Turkish including Selahaddin and the rest of 25% cast will be from Pakistan.[3] In this regard, Turkey's Akli Film Production announced to scout for talent in Pakistan from October 28 to November 1 of 2021 in Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad.[20][9] The series received 10,000 applications in Pakistan from people who wish to have a part in it. Out of more than 6,000 candidates, a total of 60 Pakistani artists got golden tickets in auditions, out of which 18 are from Lahore and 42 from Karachi.

Filming

[edit]

The TV series is being shot in Turkey and is planned to have three seasons. Each season will have 34 episodes as revealed by Adnan Siddiqui.[10][21] Production began on January 29, 2022, as producer, Emre Konuk posted an image with the caption, "Selahaddin Eyyubi yakında!" (English: Selahaddin Eyyubi soon) on his Instagram.[22] Almost 240 acres of land is procured in Istanbul where replicas of Makkah, Jerusalem, Tikrit and various cities of Syria and Egypt will be constructed. The cities constructed were supposed to be inaugurated in Turkey between 15 and 20 March 2022, with Turkish President, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Pakistani Prime Minister, Imran Khan as special guests, but that was cancelled, due to a No-confidence motion against Imran Khan, which resulted in his removal from office.

Writing

Adnan Siddiqui, one of the producers[23]

The historical series is being written by Turkish historians with the assistance of Pakistan's palaeographers and research writers.[10] Kashif Ansari imparted that screenwriters for the series have enlisted the help of Turkish historians, researchers and authors to make it as close to reality as possible.
