Concept of Karadayı
The title "Karadayı" is a combination play on the Turkish word "Kabadayı" (a vigilante enforcer of justice) and Mahir Kara, the name of the series' protagonist.
Karadayı, meaning "The Uncle in Black" in Turkish language, in reference to Mahir's nephew, Junior Nazif who calls his uncle "Karadayı".
Synopsis
Mahir fights for justice. He wants to get his father, Nazif Kara, out of jail. While he joins the court of Istanbul as a trainee lawyer to fight his father’s case, fate finds him taking its own course. He stands at a crossroads where he must choose between Feride, the judge of his father's case, and his father.
This fascinating story unfolds as it takes you back to the magical Istanbul of the 1970s with all its charm and mysticality. The city of Istanbul is beautifully portrayed to depict the historical splendor of the place and its enchanting people.
