In the artistic community, there are many secrets that the public is ignorant of, especially those that revolve behind the scenes between colleagues in the profession and one, just like the estrangement that occurred between Nour Sharif and Nadia Al-Jundi and lasted for decades.
In detail: Nour El Sherif, a well-known Egyptian star, is famous for presenting many distinguished cinematic, television and theatrical works, which achieved great success and entertained the audience at the level of the Arab world.
He began his artistic career in 1964 before graduating from the Higher Institute of Dramatic Arts and was the first in his class at the institute, and he died on Tuesday, August 11, 2015 following a long struggle with illness at the age of 69.
Among the most prominent differences that emerged in the Egyptian artistic community regarding the acting roles, the great dispute that broke out between Nour El-Sherif and Nadia El-Gendy, and extended until the death of El-Sharif, and some described it as a “historic boycott.”
The dispute between the artist Nadia Al-Jundi and the artist Nour Al-Sharif led to the latter taking a strict decision to refuse to work with Nadia Al-Jundi or to participate with her in any artistic work.
The reason for the dispute
The dispute between Al-Sharif and Al-Jundi dates back to 1980, when Nour Al-Sharif was invited to participate in the movie Al-Batiniya written by Mustafa Muharram, and he was offered the role of the character “Borai”, a man working in the drug trade. It is very important to him, because it represents a new artistic experience for him at that time.
Al-Sharif began preparing to play the role of Boraei in the movie Al-Batiniyah and bought this character the appropriate clothes and all the necessary equipment, but the winds came with what ships did not desire, as Nadia Al-Jundi refused to allow Nour Al-Sharif to play the role of Boraei in the film.
Nadia Al-Jundi attributed the reason for her refusal to the fact that Nour Al-Sharif had a childish face and was not suitable for the role of Borai’s character at the time, and she chose instead the artist Mahmoud Yassin, who was regarding the same age, and from here the dispute began between them, and Al-Sharif felt that he was subjected to a great insult.
The estrangement between Nour Al-Sharif and Nadia Al-Jundi
Mahmoud Yassin’s choice of the role of Boraei and the exclusion of Nour al-Sharif from him became a reason for the estrangement between the latter and Nadia al-Jundi, which continued until Sharif’s death, when he decided not to work with her at all, and refused many of the roles that the soldier offered him, but at the same time he did not refuse to receive her and sit With her when she was visiting him at his home or meeting him in artistic events, as he was keen to differentiate between his artistic life and his personal life.
Recently, Nadia Al-Jundi said in an interview with Esaad Younis on her Excellency’s program, that the work required the exclusion of Nour Al-Sharif from the role of Borai’s character in the movie Al-Batiniyah, stressing that Al-Sharif insisted following that not to cooperate with her in any artwork until his death.
