Egyptian stars Dina El Sherbiny and Mohamed Tharwat were gearing up to present a fawazeer show during the upcoming holy month of Ramadan.
Fawazeer means riddles in Arabic. It is an old beloved tradition that started on Egyptian radio in the 1960s and soon moved to television.
The project hails from Magdy El Hawary and contains dance numbers and sketches.
The cast also includes Rana Raeis, Mahmoud El-Laithi, Tony Maher, Abdel Basset Hamouda, and others.
It marks the second collaboration between El Sherbiny and Tharwat after the 2022 film “Hamel El Lakab”.
Production of the show was suspended after filming the pilot episode due to the project requiring great preparation, including songs, performances, and acting, which would take a long time.
El Hawary decided to postpone the project to present it perfectly without haste.
The show is set to premiere in Ramadan 2024 drama marathon.
On the other hand, El Sherbiny is planning to participate in the drama marathon with the TV series "Kamal Al Adeed".
El Sherbiny participated last Ramadan with the TV series “Al Meshwar” starring Mohamed Ramadan.
It also starred Sabry Fawwaz, Sayed Ragab, Bayoumi Fouad, and others.
The series is centered around Maher (Ramadan) who finds himself a wanted person and goes on the run with his wife (El Sherbiny).
It was penned by Mohamad Farid and directed by Mohamed Yassin.
El Sherbiny, born on March 17, 1985, started her career as a TV host for the program “Shababeek” on the Dream satellite channel.
However, her growing admiration for acting made her join the Marwa Gebril acting school.
She studied for a year and then auditioned for the TV show “Ard Khas” (Special Screening), where she was chosen to play her real-life character.
