Nelly Karim to Collab with Husband Hisham Ashour on New Project

Egyptian actress Nelly Karim will collaborate with her husband, Hisham Ashour, in the new film “Barshama”.

The cast also includes Mostafa Khater, Sayed Ragab, Taha Desouki, Mohamed Abdel-Azim, and others.

The film is written by Sherine and Khaled Diab. The project marks the third collaboration between the pair after the TV series “Rose and Layla" (TBA) and "Omla Nadra" (2023).

Karim will be next seen in the third season of the TV series "Leh La".

It also stars Salah Abdullah, Aida Riad, Ahmed Tarek, Moataz Hisham, and others.

Director Nadine Khan helmed the series from a script by screenwriter Mariam Naoum and her team in the SARD workshop.

The series is set to debut soon on the "Shahid" streaming platform.

"Leh La" focuses on the challenges and difficulties that Egyptian women face. Season one followed a character played by Amina Khalil, and season two followed a new story starring Menna Shalaby.

Karim focused on the injustice women face in divorce courts in last year’s "Faten Amal Harby", and discussed the cruel conditions Egypt's female debtors - known as 'Gharemaat' - subjected to on a daily basis in 2014's "Segn El Nesaa".
