HIND ROSTOM - Hind Hussain Mohammed or Nariman Hussein Murad, more commonly known by her stage name Hind Rostom, (Egyptian Arabic: هند رستم pronounced [ˈhende ˈɾostom]; November 12, 1929[1] – August 8, 2011) was an Egyptian actress and is considered one of the icons in the Egyptian cinema, as she was mainly known for her sensual roles.
Hind was born in the neighborhood of Moharram Bek, Alexandria, Egypt on November 12, 1929.[7][8] She was born to a Middle class family, to an Egyptian mother[9] and an Alexandrian father of Turkish origin .[1
She started her career at the age of 16 with the film Azhaar wa Ashwak (Flowers and Thorns). Her first true success was in 1955 when the famous director Hassan Al Imam offered her a role in Banat el Lail (Women of the Night).
Her physical appearance earned her the name Marilyn Monroe of the east ("مارلين مونرو الشرق").[5][6] Hind Rostom starred in more than 80 movies in her career.
She decided to retire acting in 1979 because she wanted the audience to remember her at her best.
