Reminiscing about ‘the innocence of childhood’, Egyptian entertainment news pages on Monday shared a priceless throwback photograph of iconic Egyptian actress Nadia El Gendi childhood days.

The entertainment news pages recently took to Instagram and shared a never-seen-before picture monochromatic photograph.

In the same content, the innocence of El Gendi's childhood days is clearly visible through the rare photo shared in the post.

The beautiful Egyptian actress  El Gendi was born on January 8, 1945.

She began her successful acting career in the 1950s and her portfolio includes over 200 films, including ‘Al-Gammila’ (The Beauty) starring the legendary actor Roushdy Abaza.

El-Gendi is well known in Egypt as "Negmet El gamaheer" (the star of the masses) because of the high commercial success of her movies in the 1990s.

Born and raised in Alexandria, El-Gendi started her breakthrough in cinema after winning the beauty contest in Cairo in 1958.

Moreover, the talented actress married twice, first to the late iconic actor Emad Hamdi, with whom she had one Boy, Hisham, and second to filmmaker Mohamed Moktar.

The recipient of various accolades, including 5 awards for best actress for her role in the cinema title “al-Raghba” (“The Desire”), the International al-Rubatt Film Festival in Morocco, the Damascus International Film Festival in Syria and the 2009 and International Cairo Film Festival in Egypt, she was the country's highest-paid actress in the 1980s.

It’s worth noting that the magazine “al-Geel” labelled her as the best new face when she was yet to turn 15.
