Remembering Salah Jahin on His 36th Death Anniv.

People may come, people may go but their memories stay forever and remain in our minds. And this is exactly what happens with legends like Salah Jahin, best known as the "Poet of The Revolution."

Born in Cairo on December 25, 1930, he earned his degree from the law faculty at Cairo University. Take a look at the legendary writer’s lesser-known facts:

The late poet, cartoonist, actor, and screenwriter, has been one of the most acclaimed writers of his generation.

Throughout his long-standing career, the renowned scenarist wrote a number of movies and a range of funny pomes and sketches also.

Moreover, he wrote some great patriotic songs, such as 'Soura' (Photograph) and revolutionist 'Ehna El Shaab' which played a great role in the revolution of 1952.

He was the editor-in-chief of Sabah el Kheir magazine in 1956, and then he joined the Al-Ahram newspaper staff.

Apart from journalism, Jahin presented many successful movies, including 'Khali Balak Men Zouzou' "Take Care of Zouzou 1972", starring the legendary actress Souad Hosny, also known as Cinderella. The movie was screened for over a year in domestic cinemas and the soundtrack and script are deeply embedded in Egypt’s social history.

With more than 50 plays and films in his career, Jahin was allocated many awards for his immense contribution to Egyptian cinema including the Egyptian Order of Science and Arts First Class in 1965, presented by late president Gamal Abdel Nasser.

Unfortunately, the talented writer and artist passed away in 1986 at the age of 55.
