Mohamed Ramadan teases 'Ramadan Cannon' amid rivalry with 'Ramez Elon Egypt'
ALBAWABA - Mohamed Ramadan fuels rivalry with Ramez Galal ahead of Ramadan 2025. As he shocked his audience by promoting his new show "Ramadan Cannon" in an unconventional manner, Mohamed Ramadan continues to arouse controversy and tension. On his Instagram account, Ramadan shared a video of himself inside a Tesla CyberTruck, addressing American entrepreneur Elon Musk with the caption, "Elon, you made it, and I rode it in Egypt." His remarks were not ignored since some saw them as a subliminal message to Ramez Galal, whose show this year is called "Ramez Elon Egypt" and which airs right after breakfast alongside "Ramadan Cannon." As a sort of challenge and suspense, it appears that Mohamed Ramadan intends to increase the level of competitiveness before the programs' commencement. Throughout the month of Ramadan, Mohamed Ramadan's program promises to offer a unique experience by assuming the roles of thirty characters from various professions, such as a doctor, engineer, and tuk-tuk driver, in a fun and sociable setting. The most well-known behind-the-scenes photo from the beginning of filming "Ramadan Cannon" was a shot in which Ramadan ran after a "varnish" worker in the street and attempted to give him a monetary gift. The worker initially believed that the people pursuing him were municipal employees, so he attempted to flee, only to be taken aback by the Egyptian star sitting next to him on the ground and giving him the money while the audience interacted. Mohamed Ramadan asked his supporters to try to come up with the concept of "Ramadan Cannon" before he revealed the specifics of his program. He promised the winner a special surprise and even a trip to his house. In fact, Ramadan kept his word when he paid a visit to a young guy named "William Adel" at his Shubra house after he was successful in foreseeing the program's concept. While sharing a video of the prize presentation, Ramadan wrote: "His friends who are laughing today will see him with me while we are drinking tea in Shubra... so that you know that he was right."
