The Turkish romantic comedy *Chasing the Wind* (original title *Rüzgara Bırak*) aired on Italy’s Canale 5 on Monday, 3 August 2026, in a prime‑time slot. Directed by Engin Erden, the film stars Hande Erçel as ambitious manager Aslı Mansoy and Barış Arduç as surf‑loving heir Ege Yazıcı, whose clash over a coastal development project in the Aegean drives the plot.

Filming took place in summer 2024 across Istanbul and the Aegean coast, notably in the resort towns of Çeşme and Alaçatı. The broadcast marks the first time the two popular Turkish actors appear together as a romantic lead pair in a feature film, and it introduces the story to an Italian audience.
