ATV Distribution licenses Turkish dramas to Noor Play for MENA expansion
Each of the selected titles brings a distinctive narrative and emotional resonance to Noor Play's library. ATV Distribution has finalised a new multi-title licensing agreement with Noor Play, one of the Middle East's digital entertainment platforms. As part of this ongoing partnership, Noor Play has secured streaming rights to four Turkish dramas from ATV's premium catalogue: Street Birds (Ateş Kuşları), Lifeline (Sen Anlat Karadeniz), Zembilli and Akinci. This strategic acquisition strengthens the longstanding relationship between ATV and Noor Play, underlining a mutual dedication to delivering emotionally powerful and culturally resonant stories to audiences across the MENA region. Each selected title brings a blend of compelling storytelling and thematic depth, further enriching Noor Play's content library. Street Birds tells the story of a group of abandoned children who discover an infant left behind like themselves and form a tight-knit chosen family to rebuild their lives. Lifeline offers a raw and unfiltered narrative about a woman's courageous escape from domestic abuse and her journey to reclaim her identity and dignity. In Zembilli, viewers are immersed in the layered realities of small-town life, where young people wrestle with love, grief and social pressures. Meanwhile, Akinci presents a high-octane, action-driven saga of a modern-day vigilante whose pursuit of justice is deeply entangled with questions of identity and purpose. This latest deal highlights the rising global appetite for Turkish drama and underscores ATV Distribution's growing influence in the international content market.

Every Plate with a Purpose: AVLU & Al Jalila Foundation Team Up to Support Children's Health This Summer
This summer, AVLU Greek & Turkish Restaurant is proud to announce a purposeful partnership with Al Jalila Children's Foundation, turning every main course into a contribution toward a brighter future. From the end of June until August 25, the restaurant will donate 10% of proceeds from all main course dishes ordered throughout the weekdays to support the foundation's mission in transforming children's lives through medical innovation and compassionate care. At the heart of this initiative is AVLU's signature menu - a vibrant expression of Aegean cuisine, where each main course pays homage to generations of Greek and Turkish culinary tradition. Guests can make an impact simply by savoring any of the main course items, including standout dishes such as the Seafood Orzo, a rich combination of Greek orzo with Aegean mussels, clams, squid, and rock shrimp, finished with lemon, dill, lobster bisque, and butter. Other highlights include the Salt-Cooked Wild Seabass, delicately infused with fennel and basil oil, and the Slow-Cooked Turkish Lamb Shoulder, nestled over beef bisque–infused Greek orzo, seasoned with Aegean herbs and finished with crispy lamb shards for added texture and depth. For something deeply comforting yet refined, the Ali Nazik Kebab offers tender beef fillet slices served over smoked aubergine and strained yogurt, finished with butter, walnuts, and a touch of sweet chili powder. To complement the main courses, guests can also explore a curated selection of warm Aegean starters. Notable selections include the Baked Manti - delicate Turkish baked dumplings filled with spiced beef and topped with burnt butter and garlic yogurt; the Aubergine Milfeuille, layered with creamy Greek manouri cheese, Turkish labneh, cream cheese, and basil oil; and the Fig & Feta Cheese Saganaki, which balances sweet roasted fig jam with tangy feta, layers of crispy baklava dough with roasted sesame, and drizzled organic flower honey. 'This initiative is about more than exceptional food - it's about creating moments that matter. By partnering with Al Jalila Children's Foundation, we're giving every guest the chance to turn a dining experience into a meaningful contribution. It's a powerful reminder that even simple acts, like sharing a meal, can help support life-changing work for children across the UAE.' said Efe Yaman, Managing Partner at AVLU Restaurant. Al Jalila Foundation is a leading non-profit organisation in the UAE, committed to transforming lives through medical innovation, groundbreaking research, and compassionate care. With a special focus on children's health, the foundation provides critical funding and support for life-saving treatments that give young patients hope, healing, and a chance at a brighter future. Through powerful partnerships and community-driven initiatives, Al Jalila Foundation continues to make a lasting impact on countless families across the nation. Located in Yas Mall, Abu Dhabi, AVLU combines rustic charm with modern sophistication in a serene, courtyard-style setting. At its core, hospitality lies at the heart of the AVLU experience, where every visit is a celebration of connection, flavor, and shared moments. Now, through this special summer campaign, each meal offers not only a taste of the Aegean but the opportunity to help shape a brighter, healthier future for children.
