Youssra & Nelly Karim's 'Rose Wa Laila' is Coming to Shahid This Janua

Yousra and Nelly Karim embarked on a unique experience by working on this series, which features a non-Arabic writer-director duo. British screenwriter Cris Cole and director Adrian Shergold, known for the BAFTA-nominated series 'Mad Dogs,' joined forces with Yousra and Karim to bring this series to life. 

'Rose Wa Laila', produced by Maged Mohsen and Safa Aburizik, is set to make its international debut through distribution by seasoned British executive Stewart Till's Till Entertainment. The 10-episode series, scheduled to launch on Shahid this January, presents another first for both actresses, marking their first collaboration.

Set in Cairo, 'Rose Wa Laila' revolves around two financially-challenged women, portrayed by Karim and Yousra respectively, who form a comically inept private female detective duo. As they navigate their way through the city, the pair encounters a series of obstacles, leading to entertaining and unpredictable situations.
