Prominent Egyptian actor Ahmad Zaki has been honored by the Six of October University along with the United Nations media office in Egypt in celebration of the International Youth Day. A number of young entrepreneurs, young politicians, artists and journalists were also honored to show appreciation for their works.
According to the Al Rai Al Aam daily, the actor was honored for his long journey in the acting world and for all the great achievements he accomplished as an actor and a role model for the youth in Egypt and around the Arab World.
Zaki is scheduled to undergo new tests these upcoming days in order to ensure that his health condition is stable. The actor’s supervising doctor has revealed that the tests are just routine and that he is enjoying a stable and normal life.
The actor is undergoing intensive work sessions to place the final details of his upcoming film “Al Andaleeb”, which is his debut film to the entertainment world after being away from the scenes for so long. The shooting of the scenes for the film are scheduled to take place in early September.
Zaki requested of writer Mahfouz Abdul Rahman to complete the script of the movie, which tells the story of the late Egyptian legendary singer Abdul Haleem Hafez. This demand came after a five-hour meeting between the two as part of the attempts of Ahmad to return to his acting career.
Zaki asserted that he is willing to work 10 hours a day in order to finish this movie, but the actor's doctors stressed that he cannot work more than 4 hours and may allow him to work 6 hours later on.
Ahmad revealed that he is so eager to do this movie because he is living a similar story in real life now. The actor is currently doing an intensive study about the life of the great singer Abdul Haleem Hafiz in order to be able to perform his character in the most accurate manner. –Albawaba.com
