Egyptian actress Liqa Suwaidan
Egyptian actress Liqa Suwaidan expressed her delight for the success of her performance in three Ramadan Television shows, Khalaf Allah, El-Qaserat (Minors) and Noqtet Daaf (Weak Point.)
In an exclusive interview with Arab Today, Suwaidan said that her performance in El-Qaserat was a new experience, since she played an evil and harsh mother whose love of money made her force her daughter to marry an older man.
She added that she accepted the role because it was different from who she is in real life, prompting her to make changes such as colouring her hair to fit the part.
Suwaidan also pointed out the success of Dalia El-Beheri, in her role as a woman from Upper Egypt, which she said reflected El-Beheri’s ability to play complex characters, whilst Salah El-Saadni played a very evil and challenging role.
Regarding her role in the Khalaf Allah TV series, Suwaidan said that it was completely different from her character in El-Qaserat, as she played the part of a very romantic girl that falls in love with Khalaf Allah played by the great Egyptian actor Nour El-Sherif.
Suwaidan said she considers El-Sherif as her “god father”, adding that they previously worked together in the TV series Al-Attar wel Sabaa Banat (The Spice Dealer and the Seven Girls), and in a play titled Lan Taskut Al Quds (Jerusalem Will Not Fall).
To those who have criticised her for playing two characters portraying woman from Upper Egypt in the same season, Suwaidan said “I think the two roles are totally different from each other, and even the dialects are different as they vary in the different cities and villages in Upper Egypt. “
Suwaidan explained she accepted a part in the Noqtet Daaf TV series because of her friendship with the director Ahmed Shafiq, and her relationship with the production company as she has previously worked with them.
She said when they offered her the role of Naglaa she did not hesitate to accept adding that she felt optimistic about her upcoming roles.
