Today, we lost another amazing actor we all loved, Farouk El Fishawy. He died at the age of 67 after struggling with cancer. After getting really sick in the past few days, Fishawy went into a coma, and was pronounced dead earlier this morning.
Fishawy’s ex-wife, long-life friend, and mother of actor Ahmed El Fishawy, actress Somaya El-Alfy was devastated at the hospital when she heard the news. His son Ahmed El Fishawy is one of the most famous young actors in modern Egyptian cinema.
We’ve all seen him in roles since we were little kids and our hearts were flooded with sorrow for losing him. His fellow actors and actresses are also mourning his death, as well as remembering his kind and loving soul. Here are the most heart-wrenching comments by his colleagues.
