On a different note, Yusra has been living the best days of her life with the ongoing success for the roles she played in different works for television and the cinema. The actress who is currently starring in two different films “Kalam Fil Hub” and “Amaret Ya’qoubain”, was in shock when she read in one of the tabloids that prominent Egyptian director Yousif Shahin had publicly stressed that he no longer feels she has the ability to give to the acting world and should call it quits.
The rumor had shocked everyone in the entertainment world as well as journalist, making them wonder why Yousif would make such a declaration. Many revealed that Yusra became infuriated with Shahin and his statements caused their friendship to be on icy waters.
On her part, Yusra denied that Yousif made such an announcement, stressing that she is his favorite actress and he would never advise her to quit. The actress added that she enjoys a very strong friendship with Shahin and nothing could come between them.
