Interview with Mehdi Faqih, the actor of the series “Fire and Wind” / I have never looked for the lead role

According to the reporter of Fars News Agency Radio and Television, the TV series “Fire and Bad” directed by Mojtaba Rai and produced by Hasan Najarian, is a night series of Channel 3 during the holy months of Ramadan and Nowruz this year, which has been on the air since March of last year.

“Mehdi Faqih”, a veteran actor of cinema and television, who plays the role of “Pirouz” in the series “Fire and Wind”, in a conversation with the Fars News Agency radio and television reporter, while congratulating the arrival of spring 1402 and the holy month of Ramadan, about how he joined He said about this work: The beginning of my collaboration with Mr. Rai was with the movie “Tunnel” which was made in the early seventies and I somehow played the lead role in it. Of course, I should also say that I have never sought the lead role and these talks, and the quality of the work was and still is important to me. After that, this collaboration continued in the films “Ghazal” and “The Birth of a Butterfly”. I also knew Mr. Najarian Nazanin because of his role in the Defense of the Holy films, and he also knew me and we were in contact.

I gladly accepted the role in “Fire and Wind”.

He added: I live in Shiraz; Mr. Najarian called me and said that if you are in Tehran, visit our office. I also went and saw Mr. Rai there after a long time, which made me happy. In the same meeting, they explained about the series, which at that time was called “Cerebrun Celebration”, and then they offered me the role of “Victor”, which I gladly accepted after explaining about it.

Faqih said: It was clear from the very beginning that the production of this series is a difficult task and it will not be like the series that are made in limited urban locations; But I believe that the work that is worked for will last in the end. “Fire and wind” was also from the same category of works.

Sometimes Qandil actors and agents wore beards and mustaches!

He clarified: This was not the way to create, for example, the location of mountains, plains, and rivers, or natural phenomena such as snow, rain, and storms with special effects. We waited for snow for many days in cold locations. In the midnight cold of winter, we worked in Imamzadeh Daoud, where Qandil’s actors and crew sometimes wore beards and mustaches, because we believed that if there is love behind a work, hardships must also be endured. In the meantime, both Mr. Rai and Mr. Najarian were with the agents and supported them as much as possible.

In the cinema of the world, the pillar of everything is the producer

This veteran actor reminded: the audience only sees the actors on the cinema screen and TV frame, while many people work hard to make a work attractive. In the cinema of the world, the pillar of everything is the producer. In most Hollywood or European independent cinema productions, it is the producer who reviews the script proposed by the writers and starts the production after selecting the director and actors.

This actor stated: This is professional work; Along with the mastery of Mr. Rai, I must say that Mr. Najarian was also an important pillar of “Fire and Wind”. God knows what he did for this work. Mr. Ashuri was also a skilled cameraman who created charming frames for this series with his good team. Let’s be honest, everyone was good and worked hard.
I hope people’s tables will be bigger and their suffering will be reduced.

In the end, the “Fire and Wind” actor said: Once again, I congratulate the dear people on Nowruz 1402 and I request them not to deprive us of their good prayers at the Iftar table. I hope that under the grace of Imam Zaman (A.S.) this year, with the follow-up and efforts of the authorities, we will witness that people’s tables will be bigger and their sufferings will be reduced, because our people have proven throughout history that they are patient and noble and deserve a good and long life. They are of concern.
