Ahmed Helmy and Rania Yousef unite

The Egyptian funnyman teams up with Egypt's most scandalous actress on his new project.

With her personal life strewn over the front pages of the newspapers, Rania Yousef is looking to keep her head down [2] and get back to work. So she jumped at the chance to work with Egyptian comedian, Ahmed Helmy, on a new TV drama.

According to Arabic media sources, Ahmed has been reading the script in total secrecy to avoid any plot leaks prior to filming. Meanwhile the Middle East funnyman [3] has been keeping busy finishing the scenes for new movie, 'Ala Jithi' (Over My Dead Body).
