These prominent faces may dominate the Egyptian newspapers and magazines headlines, but what about their siblings?

Few Egyptian celebrity siblings are well known, such as Dunia Ghanem's sister Emmy and Ramiz Galal's brother Yasser, but what about Karara's brother or Mekky's sister Enas, who are talented actor?

Late Veteran Actress Shadya and Afaf Shaker

Though many audiences know the actress's stage name, Shadya, few probably realise that her real name is Fatma Kamel Shaker. (The Wife no 13) star, who is famed and known for her roles in light comedies and drama in the 1950s and 1960s, is actually the older sister of Afaf kamal Shaker.

Amir Karara and Ahmed Karara

Egyptian renowned actor Amir Karara, might be handsom and by all accounts genuine guy—but he’s even more adorable when paired with his equally good-looking younger brother, Ahmed Karara. Best known for his successful role on 'Amir El Leil', Ahmed Karara also has a recurring role on 'Forsa Tania'.

Ahmed Mekky and  Enas Mekky

AL-KABIR actor Ahmed Meky may have a more high-profile career, but Egyptian audiences will no doubt recognize his older sister Inas Meky from her starring roles on TV shows such as 'Lan Aish fe Gelbab Aby', Hello America, 'Elmira El-Ekhtabout', and Amir ElZalam. Raised by their Egyptian mother and Algerian father, the siblings have always been close.
