Tension rises between Somaya Khashab and Khaled Yousif

Despite the fact that Egyptian actress Somayah Al Khashab was eagerly waiting for the screening of her new cinema film “President Omar Harb”, she was absent from the premier screening and questions were raised since she was facing problems with the director Khaled Yousif.


 According to the London daily Elaph, problems started when Somayah was upset with the order of stars names on the film, where her name came after the Egyptian actor Hani Salameh who also has a leading role in the film. The news reached director Khaled Yousif and he had a fit when he told Somayah that he was the one who made her a star and if it wasn’t for him she would be just a spare in the cinema. It was said that Khaled Yousif tried to make Hani Salameh feel better on Somayah’s account.


 It is needless to say that Hani Salameh was late for the opening show of the film on purpose where the crowd would be less entering the cinema. The film caused the audience to be very upset because it had numerous sex scenes and the film was rated as X-R films for adults only.
