The producing company, via its official Instagram account, revealed the first appearance of Dima Kandalaft as «Khawla», praising the presence she showcased and the depth and clarity she brought to the character.
Kandalaft portrays a strong, influential woman who navigates a complex web of emotional, political, and social conflicts, in a direct confrontation with the character «Faisal Al-Ghawas», played by Samer Al Masri. The relationship between the two intertwines through mutual interests and ambitions, escalating as the events unfold.
Details of the first episode of «Al-Noilati» Ramadan 2026
The first episode was filled with rapid developments, where the sheikh of the Noilatia weavers, «Ibrahim Pasha», played by Faez Kazak, writes a secret will in two copies and hands it over to «Abu Maram», played by Youssef Moqbel, before being assassinated in his workshop by masked men, an incident that shakes the Noilatia market.
With the accusations escalating against «Salah», played by Fadi Sabeeh, about the decline in the silk trade, the struggle over the will and the leadership position intensifies. «Khawla» intervenes to push her husband to enter the competition for the position, while «Salah» concludes the scene by firing shots during the funeral procession, marking the start of an open confrontation over power and authority.
