"Pershama" Arrives on Streaming Platforms This Eid — Here’s How to Watch

Yango Play is offering the Egyptian comedy "Pershama" on the platform as a special Eid al-Adha gift, even though it's still screening in theaters.

The star-studded comedy feature boasts a cast that includes Hesham Maged, Riham Abdel Ghafour, Bassem Samra, Mostafa Gharieb, Hatem Salah, Arefa Abdul Rasoul, and more.

Released on March 19, the satirical social was well-received by audiences across the region and the Arab world.

It crossed the EGP 2 billion milestone and became the second highest-grossing film in the history of Egyptian cinema.

It boldly tackles the issue of cheating in exams, a known phenomenon around the world.

The synopsis reads: "In a high school exam, the supervisor dies mid-test, and the students try to hide it… hoping to cheat. Only problem? Nobody knows the answers. Among the chaos are a top student obsessed with being proper, the mayor’s hopelessly dumb son who must pass at any cost, a dancer chasing a diploma to work abroad, a sixty-year-old woman chasing a pension boost, and a former criminal desperate to pass so he can marry. Absurd schemes, nonstop chaos, and wild laughs turn this exam into a hilarious disaster.

Khaled Diab directs the pic from a script he co-wrote with Sherine Diab and Ahmed El-Zaghbi.

Ahmed El Desouky produced the project alongside SkyLimit Studio, Film Square Productions, and Big Time Fund.

The star-studded film will hit the "Yango Play" platform on May 25.
