Egyptian singer Mohammad Muneer has decided to devote this year entirely to his acting career. The singer announced he will not release any new albums, although he will continue recording theme songs for television dramas.

Muneer will take part in the play “Al Malik Huwa Al Malik” (The King is the King) that will open this summer. Actors Salah Al Sa’dani, Faiza Kamal, Majdi Fakri and Lutfi Labib take part in the play alongside him.

Muneer will appear in the upcoming film “Ma Feesh Ghair Kidda” (Nothing Except This) starring Egyptian actors Nabila Obeid and Khaled Abu Al Naja. In the film Muneer will perform a number of songs.

Muner will also appear in the film “Youm Ma” (Some Day), also starring Lublubah.

Ibrahim Al Aqbawi, head of production company ‘Voice of Cairo for Audio and Visual’ is negotiating with Muneer for the leading role in yet another new film.

The company offered Muneeer to sing a collection of songs for the movie soundtrack that will be released in an album and distributed by the company.

Al Aqbawi stated that Muneer would be involved at all levels of production, including the screenplay and deciding upon the remaining cast and direction.

The singer is reviewing the offer and will not make a final decision until he has been informed of the film’s budget.
