Egyptian actress Hanan Turk refused to accept an offer to take part in one of the fashion shows in Lebanon despite the extremely high wage she was given. The actress stressed that she cannot imagine herself as a fashion model and is not willing to take the risk.
The actress added that acting is the only path she is willing to take risks in because it is what she knows best and will not jeopardize her name by trying out new things that she knows she will not succeed in. Hanan had participated once in a fashion show and wore a wedding dress for the grand finale at a show for fashion designer Hani Al Buhairi.
On a different note, prominent Iraqi singer Kathem El Saher had chosen Hanan for the leading role in his upcoming music video “Ahibini” (Love Me), which is written by the late renown Lebanese poet Nizar Qabani. The song is from his latest album “Ila Tilmethuh” (To His Student), which is scheduled to be released during the Muslim Eid Al Fitr holiday.
Hanan expressed her honor at being chosen by such a renown singer stressing that Kathem’s songs are so rich with meaning that the words of his songs come straight from the heart. The clip will be filmed as a short movie that holds a patriotic and romantic theme to it revolving around two lovers who attempt to meet one another but certain circumstances makes their meeting close to impossible. The song will be filmed between Cairo and Dubai under the direction of Jordanian director Hussein Du’aibis. -Albawaba.com
