We are like a woman with a difficult pregnancy. We have to rebuild the social classes in Egypt, and we must change the way things were.
I had a dozen years to act before starting a family, then found that motherhood dwarfed everything else. Once or twice a year, I take a project that appeals to me for its redeeming social value.
You do become very close like a family but because you see each other for such an intense period of time on the set everyday. You really don't end up socializing that much.
