Idol of the Masses

Suheir is a well known star. She has a large following. Ibrahim is an actor on the way up. The two of them fall in love. They decide to marry. Suheir’s producer does not want that. He acts out of jealousy. He hires a woman to break the thing up. Her task is to say that she is Ibrahim’s wife. The claim is duly made. Suheir does not know what to think. The story spreads quickly, and the film moves between melodrama and comedy inside the world of the studios. Abdel Halim Hafez and Shadia take the leads in the hundred and sixty five minute film, an Egyptian production Helmy Rafla finished in 1967.
