The parents of the former Youtuber Nilam Farooq celebrated festivals from a wide variety of cultures. The mother of the actress is Polish, her father is Pakistani – compromises were inevitable.
Actress Nilam Farooq (32), the daughter of a Polish mother and a Pakistani father, got to know and celebrated both Christian and Muslim festivals with her parents.
At home in Berlin-Wilmersdorf it was always very willing to compromise, said the actress (“SOKO Leipzig”) and former Youtuber in the first edition of the talk show “Riverboat Berlin”, an RBB offshoot of the MDR talk show “Riverboat”, which took place on Was broadcast in the evening.
“Christmas was celebrated in a very Polish way. For example, you pack an extra cover if a guest comes who has not yet registered, ”said Farooq in an interview with the new TV talker and bestselling author Sebastian Fitzek. “And there are a lot of customs about breaking wafers and so on. Instead we celebrated the sugar festival on another day. And the fundamental compromise at home was – I have a little brother – we were allowed to be baptized, so dad said «Yes is okay». And mom said, “Okay, then we won’t eat pork”. “
Farooq plays a law student in the comedy “Contra”, which is coming to the cinema on October 28 after several attempts and postponements due to Corona, who is racially attacked by a university professor (Christoph Maria Herbst). The film is a remake of the French comedy “The brilliant Mademoiselle Neïla” (original “Le Brio”).
