Karima, a natural performer with charisma, won the audition to host the children’s radio show “Baba Sharou.” She was able to get her first movie role in Thaman El-Horeya (The Price of Freedom) as a result of this. Karima became famous for her role as a young mother of seven children in Al-Hafeed (The Grandson), where she demonstrated her ability to portray maternal characters.
Amira Hobi Ana (Amira My Love) and Al-Shaytan Ya’ez (The Devil Preaches) were two of Karima’s subsequent successes. She then looked into other mediums like theater and television. In the play El-Eyal Kebret (The Kids Have Grown Up), Karima starred as a wife and mother dealing with family turmoil. She received praise for her performance. She played one of her most well-known roles in the popular Egyptian soap opera Yetraba Fi Ezo (May He Grow Up Prosperous) later in her career. In 2007, Karima won the award for Best Actress at the Cairo Arab Media Festival.
