Young actress Tara Abboud revealed details of her first foray into Egyptian comedy with the series “Fakhr El Delta” (Pride of the Delta), emphasizing that this role marked a turning point in her career due to the challenges it presented in terms of both performance and language.
During her appearance on the program “Ma’akom” (With You) with journalist Mona El Shazly, Tara explained that she paid meticulous attention to mastering the Egyptian dialect, noting that performing in a comedy requires more than just correct pronunciation. The challenge lies in grasping the “rhythm” and understanding the nature of Egyptian comedic situations to ensure authentic delivery to the audience.
On a personal note, Tara confirmed her continued medical studies despite the pressures of her acting career, stressing her determination to balance her studies with filming, driven by her desire to excel in both fields without sacrificing one for the other.
Regarding the work environment, Tara praised the collaborative spirit that prevailed behind the scenes, emphasizing that the support of actor Ahmed Ramzy and the rest of the cast greatly helped her overcome her initial nervousness and quickly integrate into her first light comedy role.
The series revolves around a young man from the countryside who dreams of breaking into the advertising world in Cairo, encountering the contradictions that blend the simplicity of village life with the ambitions of the city. The series is directed by Hadi Bassiouni and produced by Mustafa El-Awady, and features a stellar cast including Kamal Abu Raya, Intisar, Khaled Zaki, Nabil Issa, and Hanan Suleiman.
