Moeini referring to this matter that after ethics, salary is the second priority for him; He said: One of the glorious moments for me is to work with any ethical director; I am not one of those actors who work with only a few directors. When I work with Attaran or a manager, I am not badly paid; It is important to me who I work with and who gives me energy and good mood.
Actors’ salary on paper is 2 to 3 times the agreed amount
Moini said about salaries in Iranian cinema: saying that actors’ salaries are high is an image that people have created in their minds; Otherwise, wages are not so high.
The actor of “Qif” movie explained: Many actors ask the director or producer to write 2-3 times the contract amount for them, in order to improve their position. This is the secret of things; Young actors do it a lot, actors like me don’t do it anymore and I don’t like it. I work with famous and talented directors and I prefer a director who is honest.
About the experience of working with Narges Abiyar and the story of losing Simorgh, the actor of the movie “Ablaq” said: My wish is to work with Mrs. Abiyar again. My rights were violated in “Ablaq”, I went to the hospital twice and broke my leg. In Lokishini, where we worked, there were some miscreants who wanted to disrupt the working conditions, and my leg was broken in a fight. I often go for the contract with the lowest cost and the camaraderie many times made me stupid. Why should I stay at home with a bachelor’s degree from Tehran University?
Moini Simorgh considered it his right to play a role in the movie “Ablaq” and continued: Others can experience playing such a role for various reasons, but due to my age, I can no longer have such an experience. I know why Simorgh did not reach me and where this came from, but if I remained silent it was because I left it to God. Mrs. Abiyar’s wife said: Mrs. Sultan Simorghat Mubarak, then what happened that the position suddenly changed and they took my Simorgh?
Emphasizing that he never got his full rights, this actor said: I often go to the contract with the lowest cost, and friendship often made me stupid. The others are not fair that I am friends and they did not give me my right anywhere. Why should I stay at home with a bachelor’s degree from Tehran University?
Hamid Amishmeh was the only one who offered the main role
Moini explained about the only main role that was offered to him in the 70’s: In terms of the originality I felt in myself, once I was offered the main role in a work, I did not accept it. The first and the last role they offered me was a movie directed by Mr. Amishmeh, in which another woman played instead of me. A movie in which the lead actress gets pregnant and ends up in a stable. Since my originality and family values don’t allow me to play any role, so I didn’t accept this role. I didn’t like to play the sequences that questioned my originality in Qif, but I accepted because of my friendship with Mr. Attaran.
The Qif movie actor continued: There were parts in the Qif movie because of which I did not tell my relatives to watch the movie. I didn’t like to act in sequences that questioned my authenticity, but I accepted because of my friendship with Mr. Attaran.
This actress said about appearing in Joker Bawanan: Everyone who sees me thinks I am Nahid Muslimi, but I don’t think I look like her. I am an honest person and I say that I am not; However, I was not offered to participate in the women’s joker.
I complained to Human Sidi
The actor of the first season of Gesht Irshad film emphasized that I want to work with many directors and explained: One of my dreams is to work with Saeed Sohaili, but he does not consider me worthy. After Irshad tour 1, I didn’t have a chance to work with him again. My dream is to work with Ibrahim Hatamikia. I like all the directors and if I want to criticize, I will tell them.
He added: After the late Nasser Gitijah, I was no longer offered to participate in the guidance patrol. Probably, Mr. Sohaili thought that since the actor who played the role of Hamid Farrokhnejad’s father passed away, he should not have a mother anymore!
While pointing out why artists should stay at home, Moini complained about some directors and said: I had a criticism of Homan Sidi that why don’t you choose one of our own actors for the roles even though you know that our children are unemployed? Why do you employ those who slept in the job and were addicted? It’s not subversive and it doesn’t question the art, but we were grumpy. People follow the example of the director; If a director values himself, he should pay attention to those he chooses to play the role.
