Calinos Entertainment has secured a new deal on the Turkish drama Ugly, selling the show to Kanal D Romania.
The company recently sealed a deal to bring the series into the MENA region.
“Ugly made a powerful debut in Türkiye and quickly became one of the standout dramas of the season,” said Aslı Serim, the head of content at Calinos Entertainment. “The first season concluded with very strong ratings, and audiences are already eagerly awaiting the next chapter. We are proud to see this powerful drama continue its international journey with Kanal D Romania. At the heart of the series is a deeply emotional and universal story about love, resilience and transformation. We believe Romanian viewers will feel a strong connection to Meryem’s journey.”
Ilcnur Agop, content and strategy director at Kanal D2 and content production manager at Kanal D Romania, noted, “The story is much more than a love story; it follows a woman’s transformation, shaped by love, family ties, personal wounds and the relationships that define her journey. We believe these universal themes will also resonate strongly in the international market, particularly with Kanal D’s audience.”
