Prominent Egyptian actress Elham Shahin was recently in Beirut where she visited a special weight loss gym in order to attain a new look for her upcoming films.

Elham revealed that she sought expert advice in Lebanon, since they are known to be the best fitness consultants in the Arab world.

Elham denied circulating rumors that she knew her colleague actress Athar El Hakim was nominated for the leading role in the drama “Ala Naar Hadi’a” (On Low Heat), which Elham accepted.

Elham stressed that she had no prior knowledge of Athar’s nomination or any other actress for that matter, adding that the drama had been juggled from one producer to another for the past two years until it finally came into action.

The drama is written by Kawthar Haikal and directed by Abdul Aziz Al Sukari.
