Ooh cool, but i know that you are in Kuwait and about to start shooting ?

HS: Actually I finished editing 2 weeks ago and now am waiting for the score of the show,  credits and it's ready to be aired. "Ferkesh" is a 15 episode light comedy show written by: Mona Al-Shammai, Produced by Daytona Media Production. Casting are as follows: Fouz Al-Shatti, Rahaf Al-Enezi, Asrrar Dehrab, Latifa Al-Megren. It's about a Kuwaiti girl that used to be married to an American soldier during the 90's, yet the whole events are taking place in 2022. Cant't say much about now maybe in few weeks we shall chitchat bout                                                                

Good Luck and wish you all the best... What about the 3rd project? 

HS: TV Series called “Ded El Donia”, written by the renowned award-winning Kuwaiti author Alia AlKazemi and starring Fatma AlSaffi, Abdulla Bushari, and Mohamed Al-Mansour. This is a totally new concept for the gulf area and I hope they like it.

Is this a for the Holly month of Ramadan?

HS: it was supposed to be Ramadan 2022, but it's postponed till right after Eid, its a 30 Episode TV series.

All the best, and the 4th project?

HS: The fourth one is an espionage TV Series 6-8 Episodes called " THE SPY " its a true story of an Iraqi Spy written by Abdulmohsen AL-Rothan. That still being written .

Ooh Wow, don't think that a Gulf espionage has been done before right?

HS: That's true, this is going to be first.

Any Feature Films?

HS: Yes, a romantic comedy film, which we are done with the final draft of the script couple of days ago. Written by Sahar Hamza and it's called "مثلث الرعب". It's one of those movies that would put a smile on your face no matter what, also it's very controversial regarding the relations ships between men & women and funny. Sahar has this ability to write a classy romantic and funny script yet up to 2020 slang. What amazed me is Sahar didn't study film and she is also a dentist !!!!!!!. That shows she is very talented and persistent in writing. 

Oooh, Woow. OK, what's the next step?

HS: Sahar has some paperwork to do and we are discussing casting, once we have a clear vision about it we are gonna be sending the script to the actors/actresses and we will take it from there.

Congrats  ... and the last Project?

HS: For Egypt, I have a treatment for a suspense TV Series called “Le Pacha” and this is just at the beginning phase. Treatment is done and script should be written in the coming few months. and another treatment which is totally done and ready to written called " عرض لا يمكن رفضه" its a very interesting TV Series that is 6-8 Episodes.

Wish you all the best and looking forward for our next interview.

HS: Thank you its my pleasure.
