The project is shooting under the title of “Marei El Brimo”, and sees Henedy playing a Sa'idi man who sells watermelon and Adel portraying his wife.

The film marks the pair's third collaboration after working on films "Sa'eedi Fi Al Jami'a Al Amrikiyya" (1998), and "Belia We Demagho El Alia" (2000).

The film also marks the first collaboration between Henedy, Adel, and Saeed after "Saeedi at the American University".

Henedy took to Facebook to share a first look at the behind-the-scenes of the upcoming film. 

Adel was last seen in the family film “Sa'at Egaba”.

The cast starred Selim Mostafa, Sawsan Badr, Sherif Salama, Ayten Amer, Naglaa Badr, and others.

The plot revolves around a child who wishes for different parents. When his wish is fulfilled, he finds himself moving to a new house with a new family and embarking on a new adventure.
