The young artist Basant Abu Basha continues her artistic journey with choices that reveal her desire not to confine herself to a single type of character, especially after catching attention during her previous participations with her ability to portray characters that carry dramatic dimensions and varied emotions.
With each new experience, Basant seems more eager to explore a different area in her performance, which has led her this time to take on a new challenge in front of the camera through comedy.
Basant Abu Basha's participation in the film "Shish Dou" represents a different step in her journey, as it marks her first experience in the world of comedy, a genre she has wished to present for some time, according to her statements.
Her entry into this area was not merely a change in the nature of the role, but an experience that required special preparation, especially since comedy largely depends on timing, interaction between actors, and the artist's ability to handle situations spontaneously.
The experience came amidst a group of artists with long-standing expertise, which provided Basant with a new opportunity for learning and interaction, especially through her performance alongside Basem Samra and Bayoumi Fouad, in addition to the team's extensive rehearsals before filming began, which helped her gradually immerse herself in the character's atmosphere and the nature of the film.
In her conversation with "Al Arabiya.net" and "Al Hadath.net", Basant discussed the details and behind-the-scenes of the film.
Actress Basant Abu Basha stated that her participation in "Shish Dou" came to fulfill a long-standing desire to present comedy, explaining that she had hoped for some time to venture into this different area of acting.
She added that the offer to star in the film came at an opportune time, especially since she found in it the opportunity she was looking for to test her abilities in a new genre, and therefore she did not hesitate to take on the experience, confirming that the idea of presenting comedy was one of the main reasons that excited her to work on it.
She pointed out that the transition from dramatic roles to comedy represents a challenge for any actor, as the nature of performance differs, and the comedic scene requires a sense of timing and interaction with the reactions of the participating actors in the scene.
Basant explained that the preparation for the film did not rely solely on filming, but was preceded by a large number of rehearsals that brought the team together, which helped her prepare for the character and understand the nature of the scenes she presents.
She stated that the rehearsals were particularly important for her, considering that "Shish Dou" represents her first experience in comedy, explaining that the repetition of scenes and training on them gave her a greater space to understand the rhythm of the work and how to interact with the other characters.
She added that the atmosphere that brought the film team together during the preparation period helped her feel more comfortable, which reflected on her performance in front of the camera, noting that cooperation among the actors is a key element in the success of comedic scenes.
Basant talked about standing in front of artist Basem Samra, expressing her happiness to work with him, and confirming that she benefited from his presence and experience during the filming period.
She pointed out that Basem Samra's interaction with her was comfortable, noting that this human spirit reflected on the atmosphere behind the scenes and made the experience easier for her.
She added that working with an artist who has extensive experience represents an important opportunity for any actor at the beginning of their career, as interacting with actors who have diverse experiences opens the door to learning and acquiring new tools in performance.
Basant also expressed her happiness at working with the artist Bayoumi Fouad, considering that his participation in the film added to the experience, especially with his vast experience in comedy.
She explained that the presence of names with long experience in this genre helped her approach the nature of comedy in a practical way, not just through reading the script, noting that an actor learns a lot from observing the details of performance and how to deal with situations during filming.
She confirmed that the experience was an opportunity to benefit from the different generations present in the film, in addition to discovering a new space in her personal performance.
Basant Abu Basha pointed out that her first experience in comedy represents an important step in her journey, as she does not want to be associated with only one type of roles, but rather continuously seeks to present different characters.
She added that an artist needs to test themselves in multiple areas to know their true abilities, considering that "Shish Dou" gave her the opportunity to discover a new aspect of her acting tools.
She affirmed that the reactions accompanying the experience represent for her a motivation to continue searching for new roles, especially since she believes that diversity is one of the most important factors that help an artist to develop and not to remain stagnant after a single successful experience.
