Model

After her mother's death, she went to Istanbul, where she was raised by her aunt. She began to appear in advertising and runway shows. As she was a former football player, she had a muscular body, which was effective for the selection of her as a mannequin. Dilan also posed for erotic photography in popular Turkish men's magazines like Erkekçe, Peri and Bravo in the 1980s.[2][1]

Actress

Dilan starred with Şener Şen in the movie Âşık Oldum ("I Fell in Love") (1985) by Ertem Eğilmez, an adaptation of Woman in Red. Her next film, she played a leading role in, was with Kemal Sunal in Yoksul ("The Poor") (1986) by Zeki Ökten. Then, she appeared in the movie Gömlek’ ("The Shirt") by Bilge Olgaç. For her role in Eskici ve Oğulları ("The Used-good Dealer and His Sons") by Şahin Gök, she was honored. Dilan left the film set of addam’ın Askerleri ("The Soldiers of Saddam") by Gani Rüzgar Şavata and gave up because she could not stand the killing of a horse. She returned to the cinema with a role in Yağmurlu Gecede Gülperi by Oğuz Gözen.[2][1]

Singer

After her divorce, she played in the television serials with the singers İbrahim Tatlıses, Oya Aydoğan and Müslüm Gürses in 1993. She appeared as a singer on the stage in a night club.[3] Later, she worked as a soloist in luxury hotels.[2]
