'Welad Rezk' achieves revenues of LE 90M

CAIRO – 10 September 2019: The Egyptian movie "Welad Rezk" (Rezk Sons Part 2) achieved booming success, generating revenues of LE 90 million.

Written by Salah el-Geheiny, directed by Tarek el-Arian and produced by Raw Production Company, the sequel achieved significantly high revenues and recorded the highest single-day revenues in the history of Egyptian cinema.

Part 1 was released in 2014 and achieved great success; it revolved around four brothers who lead a life of crime, each with a special character, with Ahmed Ezz as the mastermind.

Part II is a mind-twisting film, even more than the first part which achieved great success.

The sequel starts with a powerful action scene, where the four sons (played by Ahmed Ezz, Amr Youssef, Ahmed El-Fishawy and Karim Kassem) are plotting a new con when they are attacked.

Their friend Atef, played by Ahmed Dawoud, is kidnapped by Kamal, dubbed "El Khawaga" played by Khaled el-Sawy.

A flashback narrative takes us through the developments of the events that culminated in this opening scene. In this part, Rezk’s sons cooperate with the corrupt officer Raouf, played by Mohamed Mamdouh, to carry out a series of robberies, which puts them in conflict with El-Khawaga.

Famed star Assala Nasri participated in "Welad Rezk Part 2" as a guest of honour in her first acting experience
