Biography
Othman Abdel Menaem is an Egyptian actor born in the city of Mansoura in 1941. At the start of his career, he worked for years in theatrical productions. He then moved his career to film, where his overweight body and his low-registered voice were used by filmmakers to portray comic characters in tens of feature films. Though his roles were mainly small or supporting roles, he gained wide popularity among Arab audiences. Among his best known works are “Ahlam Hend we Kamilia” (Hend and Kamilia's Dreams), “El Kitkat,” and “Batal men Waraq” (Paper-made Hero).
