It's a case of the young pretender pitted against the old school star of acting as Mai Ezz Eldin and Yousra apparently go head-to-head on new movie 'Jim Awfar.' Although Mai is telling reporters that she's very grateful for Yousra's support over the years, there are rumors that the two are fighting.
To complicate matters further, Yousra was the one who introduced Mai to world of acting ten years ago on TV drama 'Ayna Qalbi' (Where is My Heart.) The two have known each other ever since and according to Mai they have been great friends. That is, until the most recent film..
According to the London based Elaph, Mai had turned down all other roles at Ramadan to focus on this new movie. The film was recently released for screening around cinema houses in Egypt and has proven a success despite the chaotic political situation in Egypt at the moment. Mai thinks this is because people are in need of a little light relief with all the gloomy political news.
