Producer of the movie Leih Ya Hub has decided to replace singer Ihab Tawfiq with rival Lebanese singer Wael Kfouri, after Tawfiq insisted that he be given full casting power.
According to Al Nujum magazine, Kfouri will be arriving in Cairo within the second week of Ramadan in order to start shooting the movie, which also stars songstress Angham.
The romantic musical depicts the story of two lovers who vowed to get married but were beaten by circumstances. However, their will to be together gives them a second chance at union.
Meanwhile, Kfouri, Angham and the rest of the cast will be enjoying their time shooting scenes in the Red Sea resorts of Sharm El Sheikh, Ghadaqa and other tourist spots.
Aside from the two singers, the cast also includes Mona Zaki. It is directed by Hatem Musa.
On another note, Kfouri is currently getting ready to start recording a new duet with a yet-to-be chosen songstress, which will be added to his latest album.
The singer has not designated that the songstress must be Lebanese, but he has said that he would prefer that she is famous.
Kfouri’s last duet, Meen Habibi Ana (Who is My Love?), with Nawal Zughbi was a huge success. – Albawaba.com.
