Director Ibrahim Fakhr is set to resume mid-July filming Egyptian actress Mai Ezz Eldin's TV series “Khet Harir” (Silk Thread), which is slated to screen in Ramadan 2021 drama marathon.

Ezz Eldin was planning to participate with the series in this year’s Ramadan, however, the filming got suspended due to the spread of the novel coronavirus and the suspension of air traffic.

Furthermore, when given the green light, the series creators failed to catch up with the shooting schedule due to lack of time.

Fakhr is waiting for the opening of airports to set the filming date for the shooting outside of the home country, as it is scheduled to be filmed in three European countries.
