Veteran Egyptian actor Mohamed El Adendani died on Monday at the age of 82.

El Adendani passed away one month after the death of his wife, whom he mourned deeply. The acclaimed actor's funeral will be held in Alexandria, on Tuesday.

El Adendani was born on March 12, 1941, and began his career presenting small roles. He was fond of the monologues presented by comedy legend Ismail Yassin and excelled in presenting them when he was 14 years old.

The late Nubian artist was recently honored at the Cairo Drama Festival. He expressed his great joy over the honoring when he appeared in a television interview recently, during which he expressed his "disbelief" at that important moment in his acting career.

El Adendani participated in 149 films, TV, and stage productions. He is best known for his role in Ahmed Zaki's film “El Bih El Bawab"(1987) and the Samir Ghanem-led series "Hikayat Mizo" (1977).

During his artistic career, the actor joined the modern Sudanese Nubian theater troupe, through which he presented Nubian and Sudanese folklore, as well as a one-act play.
