Egyptian artist Tamer Hosny has become the most searched and discussed figure on search engines and the social media platform Twitter due to his film "Mesh Ana." Despite it being over two weeks since the comedic film's release, it continues to attract the interest of Egyptians on social media. The film tells the story of a character named Hassan, who suffers from a rare condition known as "Alien Hand Syndrome."
Social media users have expressed their admiration for the film, which tackles the important issue of Alien Hand Syndrome, noting that the concept is new and addresses a significant topic with the participation of Tamer Hosny and several other actors, including Magdy Kdwaney, Sawsan Badr, and Hala Shiha. One Twitter user shared, "We watched Tamer Hosny's film today, and I couldn't stop crying throughout; I don't know why I'm so sensitive now," while another stated, "The amount of positive energy in Tamer Hosny's film 'Mesh Ana' is tremendous; the true source of joy is always just one."
Alien Hand Syndrome, the condition highlighted in "Mesh Ana," is a rare illness that causes individuals to lose control over their hand, which behaves independently from the brain. In media statements, Tamer Hosny mentioned that preparing for his new film "Mesh Ana" took a year, and that the acting was challenging, thanking the entire film crew. He added, "The film was a huge gamble, as cinema occupancy was only 50%. However, I had a conviction to release it at this time, and it achieved high revenues."
