Egyptian actress Summaya Al Khashab has wore the Islamic headdress Hijab, but she will appear in it anywhere besides the set of her upcoming film “Amaret Ya’qoubain”, in which she plays the role of a poor girl from a conservative family in one of Egypt’s villages. Summay will costar in the film alongside a number of Egypt’s most prominent actors like Nour El Sherif and Adel Imam.

 

Throughout the course of events in the film, Summaya falls in love with Nour and marries him thinking that he is the solution to all her problems. Later on in the film she is shocked to discover that her union with Nour only made her life more difficult.

 

Summaya is also starring in the new film “Ali Spicy” alongside Egyptian folk singer Hakim, who will mark his debut into the acting world. Summaya was forced to leave to London to be by the side of her ailing husband, who is residing there, creating a state of chaos on the set of “Ali Spicy”.
 
According to the London based weekly, Laha, due to the fact that the filming has taken over two months, the filming producer had agreed to join the crew of the film “The Italian War” starring Egyptian actor Ahmad Al Sakka, making it impossible for him to be in two places at one time.
 
The different circumstances that the film is facing has also led to the cancellation of a music video that was to be created about the film and aired on different satellite music channels, a matter that caused Hakim to fall into a state of depression fearing that the film will not meet the high standards he had set.
