The documentary was narration of the famous singer’s life. The crew notified Diab that the tape got ruined, because of some problems in the camera that they were filming with. 
According to Al Khalij daily, Diab had been monitoring the filming of his new film on a daily bases and decided to find out the real reason behind ruining his tape, stating that he doesn’t believe that there are problems with the camera. Diab knows for sure that the camera was working the day before and the day after. The director denied knowing any reasons to why this incident happened. On the other hand Diab threatened to not finish the filming if he didn’t find out the real reason.
The manger of filming Muhsin Ahmad stressed that this is the first time for such a thing to happen, and he’s well-known for his ability as a manager in cinema filming. Muhsin adds that he only went ahead with managing this specific filming job was for his good relations with the famous super star.
The events of the film revolve around the music journey of the famous super star from the beginning up until he became famous. Diab will be narrating throughout the film with scenes from various concerts that were inside Egypt and the Arab world and concerts that were done in Europe and America. The new film is scheduled to be shown on various satellite channels during the holy month of Ramadan.
It is needless to say that the filming should have been done a year ago, but it was postponed more than once because of Diab’s busy schedule. Diab also had to make agreements with an international television station in order to have the film aired.
