hi
You are my all time favourite actor for the different roles u play.. U r really a gr8 actor..
DON’T cry over anyone who won’t cry over you
The HARDEST thing to do is watch the one you love, love somebody else
DON’T let the past hold you back, you’re missing the good stuff
Some people make the world SPECIAL just by being in it
Good friends are like STARS You don’t always see them, but you know they are ALWAYS
THERE
What do you do when the only person who can make you stop crying is the person who made you cry
Most people walk in and out of your life, but only FRIENDS leave footprints in your heart
hi khalid ,who participated in movie of empire of meem ? you or your brother or father or you ,,,, thanks

Before the 25th of Jan 2011…I thought you were another typical middle class spoiled Egyptian kid who is living the star status to the max….
But now I am proud from what you did…Now you are really reflecting the Egyptian youth generation….
Keep up the good work…
hi khaled , i like your own new blog very much
I saw Heliopolis last year at VIFF, and just saw Microphone today, also at VIFF. Both were excellent movies that I hope will open the door to more such Egyptian films (and open the eyes of officials who are ignoring the underground arts scene)! Thanks to you and Ahmad Abdullah for making these films, and for exposing foreign audiences to Egyptian cinema.
Your website is well organized and to the point.
Congratulations.
WOW!!!
I love your new site!!
