Muharrem, a deaf man-was moved to tears after learning that his neighbourhood had learned sign language just for him to promote the heartwarming message:
'A world without barriers is our dream'
Muharrem was unwittingly placed at the centre of an elaborate stunt in which he was secretly filmed encountering a host of strangers in a series of staged meetings through Istanbul.
The footage begins with him setting out for the day with his sister Ozlem, who is in on the set-up.
Before long, Muharrem is taken aback when he encounters a stranger who signs 'good morning' to him.
His surprise only intensifies when, on a visit to his local food store, the shopkeeper offers him 'hot bagels' through hand signals.
Another encounter involves a stranger dropping a bag of fruit.When Muharrem helps pick them up, the man uses sign language to offer him an apple as a thank you.
He barely has time to take it in when a woman bumps into him accidentally on purpose before signing: 'Sorry, my mistake.'
Later, the shock is clear on Muharrem's face when a taxi driver welcomes him into the car with sign language.
