The actress, Mais Hamdan, spoke about the details of her disagreement with director Khaled Youssef, after she refused to present the scenes of kisses in the movie “Weja”, after she was nominated instead of the artist, Dolly Shaheen.
Mais Hamdan said, in televised statements: Khaled Youssef was possible a long time ago in a situation that happened. He was a little foolish in his reactions, and he wanted me in the role of Dolly Shaheen.
I was in the Wega movie, and I went to his office and there was Hani Salama, and he was convincing me of the role, and at that time I had a terrible hold that I would not be able to act out the kissing scenes and the hot scenes in the movie.
And Mays Hamdan continued: He used to tell me that you are not an artist, and they abolished this method, and you were the ones who abused art and the time of artists. I did not have the courage to do these scenes, and I apologized and told him that I would not be able to play this role, and he got upset and shook me and told me what he meant by the one like me who abused the job.
And she explained: “The press knew and the news spread, and I also said that I was going to make the film, and Khaled Youssef spoke to me and condemned me on my brain and told me what it means, you want to link your name to me and defame yourself, and don’t answer my name again on your tongue and don’t speak to me sincerely, and I took the words and kept silent.”
And about the actress Hani Salama’s attempt to persuade her to participate in the Wega movie, she added: “Hani Salama tried to convince me, isn’t his movie, and he is the one who does these scenes? And Hani is one of the very kind and hardworking artists.”
