Novi Pazar – Alen Turković revealed that during his participation as a contestant on “Audicija” (Audition) the judges told him he couldn’t win. “One member of the jury told me that with my accent and qirks I couldn’t win, because they are looking for things that are universal at the level of the state.

I want to show that we are equal citizens of Serbia, and have our own worth.
