Egyptian actress Huriyah Farghali has decided to defy the current unstable political conditions in Egypt and get back in the action. Her career will continue despite what others say or think.  She has begun filming the scenes for her new film "Al Qashash", which she stars in alongside Salah Abdullah, Mohammad Faraj and Hiba Majdi. That means that this Eid Al Adha, Egypt will have something to keep their minds occupied outside political troubles.

According to Laha Magazine, the beauty queen said, "I know that Egypt is going through very tough and stressful times, but I strongly believe that resuming work on my acting career is a must to defy these conditions and support the production company in its decision to go ahead and film the scenes of the new movie."

She added, "I believe that reviving the film production industry is a responsibility of every Egyptian actor that loves his country and wants it to return to normal."

In the film, Huriyah's role is different than anything she's done in the past. She plays the character of folk dancer that helps a young man who has been falsely accused of murdering a famous businessman. The film revolves around a common neighborhood whose people are known to support and stand by one another.

Will Egypt support and stand by Horiyah as she insists the show must go on? Please share your thoughts by commenting below!
