Weekday Chaos, Weekend Vibes — Just How Cairo Likes It 😉📲
Sabah el kheir ya Qaheraaa! ☀️ It’s finally Thursday — and you know what that means… just a couple more hours stand between us and a well-earned break after what felt like the longest week ever. This week had everything — from animal shenanigans to human drama, from iconic tours to jaw-dropping revelations and major announcements. Cairo really did not hold back — and honestly? Neither did we. And if you’re feeling a little out of the loop after all the madness (we don’t blame you), just hit refresh on our feed 🔄📲 — we’ve got all the highlights, moments, and stories you need to catch up and feel in the know.
Let’s get into it! 💪✨
Ali Beialy nearly stepped away from his major role in Lam Shamseya. In his first interview after the series with Lamis El Hadidy, he shared how he almost turned down playing a child facing sexual assault.
The worry of public judgment loomed heavily. “What will people think?” he asked himself, uneasy about the reaction.
It was a tough decision for the young actor.
Then came a defining talk with director Karim El Shenawy. “You will be the voice of the voiceless,” El Shenawy explained, highlighting the chance to represent those often overlooked.
That struck a chord with Ali. It shifted his focus from fear to purpose—he saw the impact he could have. With that, he took the leap.
Ali’s performance left everyone speechless. Despite his age, he brought strength and sensitivity to a tough story. His ability to tackle such a hard topic with care was striking.
Co-star Amina Khalil couldn’t hold back tears, moved by the depth he brought to the screen and beyond.
Amina Khalil beamed with pride. “He’s like family now,” she said, her voice catching.
Hearing Ali recount his journey—from doubt to determination—touched her deeply. His commitment to a story that matters showed a rare maturity, especially for his age, leaving her in awe.
