🥹A Heartfelt Farewell To The Beloved Soliman Eid! 🪽

  • After the sudden loss of one of its most beloved actors, Soliman Eid, who passed away at the age of 64, the Egyptian art scene mourned while numerous stars from the entertainment industry gathered to pay their respects and offer condolences at his funeral, which took place at the Police Mosque in Sheikh Zayed.

  • The atmosphere was filled with sadness as colleagues and friends remembered the life and work of the beloved actor.

  • Abdo Soliman, the son of the late actor Soliman Eid, expressed his profound grief and deep sense of loss following the passing of his father. In an emotional message, he asked his followers to pray for his father’s soul, seeking mercy and forgiveness for him.

  • The post reflected not only his sorrow but also a sense of gratitude for the love and support his father received throughout his life. It was a poignant reminder of the cherished bond between father and son and the impact Soliman Eid had on those around him.

  • Stars Paid Their Respects

  • Among the notable figures present were Alaa Morsi, Salah Abdallah, Laila Elwi and Amr Abdel Galil, who were among the first to offer condolences.

  • Other artists who attended the funeral included Ayten Amer, Ahmed Siam, Foutouh Ahmed, Khaled Galal, Esaad Younis, Edward, Wafaa Mekky, and Manal Salama. The large turnout reflected the high regard and affection that Soliman Eid held within the artistic community.

  • The funeral was especially emotional for artists Hamdi El-Mirghani and Alaa Morsi, who were close friends with the deceased. The news of Soliman Eid’s passing deeply affected them, casting a shadow of sadness over their faces as they mourned the loss of a dear friend and colleague. It was difficult moment for everyone who knew him personally.

  • Final On-Screen Appearance Remembered…

  • Soliman Eid’s final artistic contribution was in the film Farr Bi 7 Tarwaah (Rat with 7 Lives), released during the Eid al-Fitr cinematic season 2025. In the film, he played the unique role of a mysterious corpse that moved humorously between unexpected locations.

  • But Soliman Eid’s career began in the late 20th Century, with his role in the 1992 film Al-Irhab Wal Kabab (Terrorism and Kebab) serving as a springboard for many subsequent roles.

👀👀“Journalism Or Harassment?” Taha Desouky Questions Media At Funerals

  • Egyptian actor and comedian Taha Desouky recently took to Facebook to ask a simple question: why is the media so invested in covering every detail of celebrities’ personal lives?

  • From weddings to funerals, he pointed out that it often feels like no moment is truly private anymore.

  • While he didn’t name names, many people think the post came after the heavy media attention at the funeral of actor Soliman Eid.

  • Cameras weren’t just covering the event—they were zooming in on grief, emotions, and even who showed up.

  • Desouky explained that while artists know their work is public and open to criticism, that doesn’t mean their lives are always fair game.

  • He asked why news outlets are chasing celebs through deeply personal moments that have nothing to do with their careers.

  • He even broke it down with a real-life example: if someone filmed a regular person crying at a funeral, it would feel wrong. So why is it okay when it’s a public figure?

  • His post didn’t go unnoticed. A lot of people agreed with him and felt like the media needs to back off sometimes.

  • Others chimed in to say it’s complicated—some photographers or outlets feel pressure to deliver what the audience expects, even if it feels uncomfortable.

  • Either way, the post got people talking about something many celebrities (and viewers) have probably thought about for a while: when does reporting turn into overstepping? 🤔
