Syrian actress Jeanie Asber revealed that she will be playing the role of ‘Jacqueline’ in the upcoming Egyptian television drama “Abid Karman”, which will be aired during the holy month of Ramadan on the Arab satellite channel MBC.
Jeanie’s character is a young woman of French citizenship that falls in love with the main character in the drama “Abid Karman”, which is played by prominent Syrian actor Tayem Hassan. Throughout the events of the drama, Jeanie’s character becomes Abid’s unforgettable love that leads him to travel to France to be with her. While in France, Abid encounters numerous obstacles with the French secret service, who assumed he was a spy.
Jeanie revealed that what made her character unique is it being of a very romantic nature that required her to combine French statements to Arabic ones in the Egyptian dialect. She added that it was very difficult for her to master the Egyptian dialect, and it took a lot of effort on her part to be able to play her part to the best of her ability.
The story of the drama is based on the popular novel by the late author Maher Abd Al Hameed.
