Malekās anticipation was already high as he prepared for an important moment in his career. His name had been announced as one of the recipients of the Hypatia Golden Award for Creativity, and the atmosphere at the Alexandria Short Film Festival was charged with excitement.
The stage was set for a memorable evening as the spotlight was ready to shine on one of the brightest talents in Egyptian cinema.
However, the evening had an unexpected turn of events. As the night progressed and the moment for the award presentation drew closer, Malek likely thought the course of the evening had already been written.
What he didnāt expect was to see his friend and co-star, Taha Dessouky, walk onto the stage to present the award.
Taha Dessouky, who starred alongside Ahmed Malek in Welad El Shams, stood before the audience with a bright smile, radiating warmth and genuine excitement.

For Malek, the surprise was nothing short of powerful. In a moment of genuine emotion, he later described the surprise as āreal,ā emphasizing how significant it was to receive such recognition from someone he had worked closely with.
The gesture went beyond the formalities of an award ceremony, touching on the deep connection between two actors who had shared the screen and developed a strong bond over time.
The crowd at the Alexandria Short Film Festival responded with overwhelming enthusiasm. The applause was not only for Malekās well-deserved award but also for the beautiful moment that Dessoukyās surprise brought to the event.
The audience was clearly moved by the gesture, as it was a reminder of the personal relationships and collaborations that go into making art. It wasnāt just a celebration of Malekās talentāit was a celebration of friendship and the connections that actors forge during their time on set.
While the Hypatia Golden Award for Creativity was undoubtedly a major highlight of the evening, it was Dessoukyās surprise that truly made the night unforgettable.
The gesture added an extra layer of magic to what was already an exciting event. It was a beautiful reminder that awards and recognition are not just about the accolades themselves but about the people we work with and the moments that come from those experiences.
The audienceās excitement wasnāt just about the awards on stageāit was about the human connections that make those achievements even more meaningful.
