Veteran Egyptian musician Omar Khairat added “Al-Mamar” movie soundtracks to the program list of his concerts scheduled to be held during July at Cairo Opera House (COH).
Khairat understands Arab emotions and music which helps him attract a large audience spanning the Arab region. He has regularly performed at Cairo Opera House and in various Egyptian and Arab ceremonies during the last fifteen years.
In addition, The Egyptian Icon also composed many successful music pieces such as: “Dameer Abla Hikmat” (Abla Hikmat’s Conscience), “Wagh el-Kamar” (The Moon's Face) and “Leilet el-Kabd ala Fatma” (The Night Fatma was Arrested), and others.
“Al-Mamar” hit cinemas in Eid al-Fitr. The highly-anticipated film achieved a great success.

The film stars Ahmed Ezz, Ahmed Rizk, Eyad Nassar, Ahmed Falawkas, Mohamed Farrag, Ahmed Salah Hosni, Mohamed al-Sharnoubi, Mohamed Gomaa, Mahmoud Hafez, Amir Salah Eddin, and Asmaa Aboul Yazid.
