Cairo | Days before filming began, Salma Abu Deif got the starring role in “The Highest Viewing Rate” (15 episodes – exclusively on MBC and “Shahid”) after the first heroine, Asmaa Jalal, apologized for being associated with another series. But the Egyptian model and actress did not waste the opportunity, even though she was presenting the character of a popular girl for the first time. Thus, it succeeded and the dramatic work gained a share of its name. It is true that the facts from which the makers of “Highest Viewing Rate” inspired the content of the episodes formed an issue of public opinion about three years ago, but this did not prevent the public’s interest in the series because it simply cared about presenting what people had not seen in the series. That case known as “The Tik Tok Girls”, what happened in their homes and how they reached this situation.
The “Tik Tok Girls” case, in which some of the women involved were sent to prison, is represented by some human trafficking applications exploiting girls who achieved rapid fame through the application, which was new five years ago, and attracted a small age group through its video making technology that is not found on Facebook, Twitter, or Facebook. Change them. This prompted digital human trafficking gangs to exploit girls and turn them into application ambassadors with the aim of attracting the largest number of women looking for quick and easy money, until the relevant authorities intervened and succeeded in trapping most of them and sending severe warnings to society and Egyptian families who did not know what teenage girls were doing with a smartphone camera.
Director Yasmine Ahmed Kamel did not start the series (written by Samar Taher) from the climax moment, and did not give the case itself and the investigations the greatest space. Rather, she went far to the first video, which unintentionally turns the heroine of the series, “Shaima,” into a trend, and the multiple conflicts that take place after her. the parties. An economically collapsed family does not succeed in controlling its daughters. “Nessma” (Laila Ahmed Zaher) is jealous of her sister “Shaima”’s sudden success because she was the one who preceded her into the world of Tik Tok. There are lurking business managers and owners of suspicious applications who want to exploit the trend. All of the above created an exciting drama on multiple levels and lines, without turning it into an educational documentary drama whose goal is to warn against diving into the TikTok swamp, in addition to shedding light behind the scenes of the world of live broadcasting, which achieves enormous gains only by luring followers or being vulgar in front of them.
It is true that the two heroines of the work, Salma Abu Deif and Laila Ahmed Zaher, had never presented popular characters, but they succeeded to a great extent in the experiment, while criticism was sometimes related to exaggeration in the pronunciation of some words to confirm popularity or in facial expressions, as Zaher did, influenced by the performance of the real girls of Tik Tok. Other than that, the duo created a good competitive relationship in front of the camera that made the audience divided between them, while they were surrounded by a group of veteran actors, led by Intisar in the role of the mother, Farah Youssef (the older sister), and Islam Ibrahim (her immoral husband), along with Mohamed Mahmoud, who starred in The character of the helpless father, whose personality explains much of what happens in the real world of Tik Tok in light of the collapse of the father’s authority and image, both financially and morally.

The last episode witnessed the use of the great actor Ahmed Badir in the character of the judge who was forced to imprison “Shaima”, in an important message that confirms that ignorance of the law and involvement in suspicious networks does not absolve the person concerned from responsibility. A message directed mostly to those who sympathize with the real figures who criticized the prison sentences at the time, considering the accused were young girls. Perhaps the most prominent messages of the series were represented in the shots after the ending sequence, where most of the heroes appeared and had returned to Tik Tok, and “Nessma” turned to videos solving the problems of the jinn, while her uncle and her sister’s husband engaged in similar videos as if they had not learned the most important lesson, which is that survival It lies in staying away from the application itself, which deceives all its users that they are able at any time to achieve the “highest viewing rate.”
