Jordanian actress Mais Hamdan revealed that during the holy month of Ramadan she reads a portion of the holy Quran daily, before heading to filming studios.
Mais said that she also goes to the gym daily during Ramadan, since she is prone to gaining weight from overeating during the holiday season.
According to the internet website MBC.net, Mais said that she anxiously awaits the arrival of the month of Ramadan and dedicates a large portion of her time to worship.
“I enjoy spending time with my family and friends during the month, and I hold many gatherings for ‘Iftar’ (the daily meal breaking the fast), said Mais.
On a different note, Mais said that she refused to work with Egyptian director Khaled Yousif because she did not want to play seductive roles requiring and intimate scenes. Khaled’s films have achieved great success, but the roles he nominated Mais for were “too seductive” and not suitable for her, she said.
