LOVIN RAMADAN SERIES
Laam Shamseya’s Writer Is Defending The Kid For Portraying A Sexually Harassed Character
Laam Shamseya has been one of the most talked-about TV shows this Ramadan, and it’s not hard to see why. The show’s deep dive into the sensitive topic of child abuse has captured the attention of viewers, sparking thought-provoking conversations across social media. But it’s not just the show’s powerful message that’s being discussed – there’s a certain young actor who’s stealing the spotlight and receiving a wave of support from all corners.
Since 2013, this extraordinary Ramadan tradition has brought thousands together in one of the most heartwarming and unforgettable community gatherings in the country. But this isn’t just an iftar.
The show touches on the often-taboo subject of child abuse, shedding light on the painful realities many face. The emotional weight of the story has had a significant impact, prompting important reflections on the role of society in protecting vulnerable children.
A safe environment for young talent One thing that has stood out in the making of Laam Shamseya is how seriously the production team has taken the psychological well-being of the young actors. Director Karim Elshenawy, understanding the emotional challenges that come with portraying such sensitive themes, took steps to safeguard the children involved in the show.
He invited child psychology experts to ensure that the filming environment remained safe and nurturing, not only for the young actors but for the entire cast and crew.
This proactive approach included specialized training on how to interact appropriately with children, which speaks volumes about the care and consideration given to those involved in the production.
In the midst of all the buzz surrounding the show, young actor Ali Beialy, who plays a child character who is sexually harassed, has found himself at the heart of attention. His portrayal of such a difficult and emotionally charged character is nothing short of impressive, but unfortunately, not everyone has been kind in their assessment. Some of the criticisms leveled against him have been harsh, with people questioning whether such a young actor should be taking on such heavy roles.
Enter Mariam Naoum, the brilliant writer behind Laam Shamseya, who stepped up to defend Ali Beisaly. Naoum explained that the young actor has shown an incredible amount of courage, saying he’s got more bravery than many adults when it comes to taking on such a challenging role. Naoum’s defense of Ali reflects the support from those who understand just how difficult it is to portray such complex emotions at a young age.
