The able artist and attractive woman, Maali Zayed, is one of the most talented and attractive actresses ever, with her cute looks that the audience is familiar with and her talent that has always been associated with an easy and uncomplicated performance.
But her artistic career included a movie that ended her and almost killed her life and crushed her psyche in the nineties, which caused a giant crisis with her husband to the extent that he forcibly shaved her hair, and made her a person rejected in society to the point that she faced a prison sentence. Here are the details.
She is Maali Saagh Abdullah El Miniawy, better known as Maali Zayed. Her father Sagh worked in the army, meaning a major, so he registered her name in the name of Maali Sagh Abdullah.
Born in November 1953, she graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts, and was raised in an artistic family full of talent.
Her first artistic participation was a movie entitled “Waste Al-Omar, My Son”, starring the late artist Mahmoud Abdel Aziz and directed by the Almighty Raafat Al-Mihi. After that, she continued the successful roles of the artist Maali Zayed, the most important of which are the movie “The Apartment from the Wife’s Right” and the movie “The Egg and the Stone”.
her marriage:
The artist, Maali Zayed, was married twice: the first was to an engineer, and the marriage lasted only three years. The second and most controversial marriage was from a doctor she met while undergoing one of the surgeries.
The film that threatened the life of “His Excellency Zayed”:
Although Maali Zayed presented many daring and hot scenes during her artistic career, the movie Abu Al Dahab was the most troublesome in her life. The film was starring with Mamdouh Wafi and Mamdouh Abdel Alim.
Her husband’s crisis with the movie “Abu Dahab”
The first crisis began when Maali Zayed’s husband, the doctor, entered the filming location during the filming of the movie to find Ma’ali Zayed in the arms of Mamdouh Wafi, which led him to a violent quarrel with her when they returned home.
This quarrel led to the husband shaving Maali Zayed’s hair forcibly, which prevented her from completing the filming.
The series of crises in the movie “Abu Al-Dahab”, which reached prison in 1996, submitted a series of official communications against His Excellency Zayed and Mamdouh Wafi. The censorship inspector – with an administrative error – bypassed the head of the Supervisory Authority, Ali Abu Shadi, and submitted the reports to the Public Prosecution,
As a kind of malicious communication, he incorrectly placed two addresses for both artists, which prevented the notification of the case from reaching them, so His Excellency Zayed and Mamdouh Wafi were sentenced in absentia to one year in prison and a fine.
Both the producer and the director disavowed her, which shocked everyone, and she continued to be surrounded by that scandal until 1997 when the court ruled her innocence and fined the producer 5,000 pounds and 3 months imprisonment with suspended execution, but Maali Zayed did not overcome the crisis easily, as her sister disavowed her and her husband acquitted her because of her. .
