Chico, born on July 4, 1980, is considered one of the most talented actors in Egypt.
During university, he created the Tamr Hendi production company with his friends and fellow actors Hesham Maged and Ahmed Fahmy, which produced films that ridiculed famous Egyptian films.
They created the film “Men who do not know the impossible”, a project that attracted the attention of Mohamed Hefzy, who at the time was trying his hand at production.
Hefzy produced their first TV series “Afeesh wa Tashbeeh” that tackled Egyptian classics in a cynical way in each episode.
He also produced the trio's 2008 film "Waraqat Shifra" which was a big hit at the box office.
Other film credits include "Hamlet Freezer" (2016), "El Harb El A'lameya El Talta" (2014), "Banat ElA'm" (2012), and "Samir, Shahir and Bahir" (2010).
Chico is also best known for his roles in TV productions such as "The Game" (2020), and "Khalsana B Sheyaka" (2017).
