Reza Kianian contracts coronavirus

Iranian well-known actor Reza Kianian has contracted coronavirus.

Doctors say Kianian’s general health is good and the virus is performing weak in his body.

Kianian had appeared in a number of ifilm series and movies such as ‘The Sting and the Bee’, ‘A Cube of Sugar’, ‘The Pahlavi Hat’, and ‘A Piece of Bread’.

He holds a degree in Theater from Tehran University. He began acting in plays in 1966 appearing in works such as ‘Antigone’ and ‘The Marriage of Mr. Mississippi’.

In 1989, Kianian appeared in his first film ‘All the Temptations of the Earth’ by Hamid Samandarian.

At the 13th Fajr International Film Festival he was nominated for Best Male Actor in a Supporting Role for 'Kimia' (1994).

In past months, several artists have contracted coronavirus because of working in cinematic and TV projects.

The Iranian director Borzou Niknejad says observing COVID-19 protocols while producing a film is impossible. He says, “When we are making a series almost 80 people use a single bathroom, we have to remove our masks, and the makeup artist has to work on several artists at the same time. How can we observe the protocols?”
